Hmmm .. I know several of us bootstrap many many times a day without any
problems.  Just to verify, could you do the following:

1.  Type the following:

        mkdir -p /tmp/humorpete/lib.repo
        
2.  Edit your ~/build.properties file and add (or edit appropriately):

        lib.repo = /tmp/humorpete/lib.repo
        maven.home = /tmp/humorpete/maven

2.  Type the following in some other directory:

        cvs co jakarta-turbine-maven
        cd jakarta-turbine-maven
        ant -f build-bootstrap.xml

3.  Report your results.

As I mentioned, lots of us build maven several times on a daily basis
and we have not experienced any problems.  If the above doesn't work,
could you provide more information about the failure (ant -debug) and
your environment (os, jvm version, etc ...).

No problem.  In the future, just use the "-u" option to diff to create
your patches.  Here is a reference:

Thanks again!
