you lost me on that one ... Tom is hestitant about moving to 6.1 because we 
don't know what the fall out will be ... since I imagine the fallout would be 
in the configure/build stage, if we modified CVS to have a 6.1 configure script 
in place, wouldn't the buildfarm servers not be a good means to test *if* there 
is any fallout?
