3.0.8???  That must have been some spring break!  ;-)

Sounds good to me.  I'd like to wrap up 3.1.2 before too long, because there
have been a lot of bug fixes since 3.1.1.  I think I backported most non-DB
changes from 3.2 to 3.1.2 now, but there was the whole Makefile include
business that I wasn't sure about.  If you think it's an appropriate
bug fix for 3.1.2, could you put it in?

Things like the date range selection and template_patterns idea discussed
a while back would be fore 3.2 only.

I was also wondering about this last change to htdig.cc in 3.1.2:

193c193,197
<     l.Create(config["exclude_urls"], " \t");

Is there an advantage to doing this rather than testing excludes.hasPattern()
before doing a excludes.FindFirst()?  I was wondering why in some cases,
one approach is used, and in other cases, another is used.
