Thanks again for picking up the bright weapons of empirical science from 
the storeroom.  We are indeed safe on lxbroy10, but the mythical monsters 
are still roaming on macbroy20, 21 etc.

I've just found this out the brutal way, by an accidental push from one of 
my many clones, which still had an old entry in .hgrc -- nuke!

So we have another fresh clone in /home/isabelle-repository/repos/isabelle 
according to 
http://isabelle.in.tum.de/repos/isabelle/file/fff984a77f58/Admin/Mercurial/Central/README#l18


Gladly, Alex and Franz Huber are also making some progress in pinning down 
the problem in the patched SuSE kernel for the NFS client/server.
