I don't want to hijack the thread, but I upgraded to 3.9 a little while
ago.  I trashed the DB, mostly because I wasn't getting that great of
performance out of it for some users and I switched tokenizers.  I did
upgrade (had to find an ancient source copy from a few versions ago, not
an easy task, but by far the most difficult).

I did: make uninstall, configure make, make install, and everything just
worked.  It was by far the easiest compile I have ever done on a piece
of software. 

Thanks again to Stevan, Paul,  and the rest of the team... not having to
worry about spam is such a nice feeling.
