I'm a little confused about the update process for binaries.  I'm using the 
latest svn.  It looks like the included failsafe.cf will constantly overwrite 
any updates I install in /usr/local/sbin because of the following:


   "/usr/local/sbin"                                                            
                                              
           comment => "Ensure cfengine binaries were copied to /usr/local/sbin",
            handle => "update_files_usr_local_sbin",
             perms => u_m("755"),
         copy_from => u_cp_nobck("$(sys.workdir)/bin"),
       file_select => u_cf3_files,
      depth_search => u_recurse("1"),
            action => u_immediate;


Shouldn't the copy go the other way around?  Everything else seems so well 
thought out I thought I'd ask here before fixing it.

Overall though, I love the new bootstrap process.
