That's what I thought too, however that's what I was told to do. I see no value-add to putting things in contrib, however I'm using it as an easy way to gut the living crap out of the cvs repository because of all the improperly imported code that has gone before. All I know is I'm REALLY F_CKING SICK AND TIRED of people clobbering my cleanly imported code (cf groff et al).

If we patch the sources directly, were in the *exact* same boat we were in except the sources live in src/contrib. Nate
