Could be - that's the nature of a cvs.  In fact, in another msg, Luca says
he's fixed it.

As I've said, the cvs is a development version.  Sometimes rapidly moving,
sometimes not.  Sometimes a commit will break something on another OS or be
total crud.  It happens.

If you're going to track the cvs, then keep an eye on the commit messages
that show up here - it tells you what's being changed.  Unfortunately,
sometimes messages get lost or don't appear in a timely manner.  In that
case, cvs log and cvs diff are your friends...

If something breaks, then apply the old 'what changed' filter and report the
problem here.

And as the version.xml warning says, "This is the current DEVELOPMENT
version - Expect the unexpected!".

I don't know why my periodic update didn't get the same files - maybe the
server was offline and my script didn't catch it.

But I've seen too many cases where people checked out into an existing
directory, got half of a stable version and half of a cvs and it didn't
compile. With the strangest messages imaginable.  So the 1st advise is to do
the clean checkout.

If that fails, then do what you did - report it here.  But if you can 1)
indicate you did a clean checkout and when and 2) nail it down a little (for
example, grep for rrdAlarm - figure out what files it's in and then check
the cvs log), it helps a lot.
