Well that is bizarre because as you know, I do not have write access to the
wxWindows CVS so if I have a file in my local copy, it *must* have come from
cvs in the first place.

Very often I get this for Bake / make / configuration files. Often in the
samples / examples directories. OK, just did a wxWindows CVS update and here
is a small sample of this example:

cvs update: move away samples/render/Makefile.in; it is in the way C
samples/render/Makefile.in cvs update: move away samples/render/makefile.bcc;
it is in the way C samples/render/makefile.bcc cvs update: move away
samples/render/makefile.gcc; it is in the way C samples/render/makefile.gcc
cvs update: move away samples/render/makefile.unx; it is in the way C
samples/render/makefile.unx cvs update: move away samples/render/makefile.vc;
it is in the way C samples/render/makefile.vc cvs update: move away
samples/render/makefile.wat; it is in the way C samples/render/makefile.wat
cvs update: move away samples/render/renddll.cpp; it is in the way C
samples/render/renddll.cpp cvs update: move away samples/render/render.bkl; it
is in the way C samples/render/render.bkl cvs update: move away
samples/render/render.cpp; it is in the way C samples/render/render.cpp cvs
update: move away samples/render/render.dsw; it is in the way C
samples/render/render.dsw cvs update: move away
samples/render/render_renddll.dsp; it is in the way C
samples/render/render_renddll.dsp cvs update: move away
samples/render/render_render.dsp; it is in the way C
samples/render/render_render.dsp

So maybe I should be watching for occurences of this and going and deletig the
files from my local copy and letting it get a new copy. 

Actually, thinking about it, I may have a solution as to why it occurred. Some
time ago, while not tihinking I did a cvs update while su'ed. If it associated
root with those files, it may explain why it doesn't want to delete them? That
being the case, I can go through and fix that fairly simply.

That may also in some strange fashion explain my other current problems with
not being able to build M because of those  strange errors relating to wx
include files.

TIA
