As you and Ville indirectly suggest, I agree that external files
containing @all directives should never win a "clone war".

Alas, the fundamental problem won't be solved so easily, namely that
there are too many versions of data floating around. Duplicate (and
thus dangerous) data resides in the reference/local .leo files, in the
cache and, most mysteriously, in so-called "resurrected" (aka vampire)
nodes. I'll refresh our memory about resurrected nodes in another
thread.

By far the biggest mistake I made yesterday was "correcting" the
problem with my files.  Instead, I should have kept the problem and
switched to a clean branch.  It's always a mistake to correct a
problem without knowing its source.
