The ftp.cme.nist.gov site where we used to fetch the distfile from only
seems to have older stuff on it now. :-( The primary dist point now is
from http://expect.nist.gov, but there is a huge long pathname for an
alternative ftp pathname if needed.
Yeah, I did an update based on beta 5 (?) some months ago and forgot about
it. I was about to commit it when I thught I'd better check the http page
first, just in case. I'm glad I did, because I'd have missed the 5.21
release from a few weeks back.
