I consider this twofold renaming of directories pointless, and as you know, it
required a twofold update in some other theories of mine. I guess I should
have stated my displeasure earlier but thought that since Makarius had already
stated he didn't even see the problem, this would discourage you. Obviously I
underestimated you ;-)
Nuff said.
