Haven't seen it yet. Nowadays I do most through NSC. The 4.5 
release's reader does funny things previous releases didn't. 
Especially with margin enforcement.

Other than that, I don't know. Today it looks like:

root:/usr/ports/devel/crossgo32/CVS# cat Entries 
/Makefile/1.5/Fri Feb 20 18:39:46 1998// 
D/files//// 
D/patches//// 
D/pkg//// 

This time I added a space to the end of each line. Maybe that will
prevent NSC from doing its thing. I believe the previous cat was made
before I removed a file and this one after. Guess I'd better remove
this entry as well.

Oh, goodie. But thanks for the reference, wouldn't have found it as
easily. Have never mucked with inode tables myself, either.

It doesn't really matter. The system boots fast enough.

Something I haven't done yet, either <g>.
