It did. Because I wanted a clean slate for the debs, so I had a make 
clean in that script, and it squawked. I'll take it back out. I swear, 
some mornings its just not worth it to chew thru the straps and get up 
to pee :(

EXCEPT! Its not in either script so it has to be in dpkg-buildpackage.
Grrrrrrrr........ I guess I'll let it squawk, or put the checkout line 
just before runtests line?  Choice?
