IIRC, it was Hiroshi. I remembered the post, went to the archives, and
pulled it up to double-check. So, I thought I'd just put out a feeler
to see how I needed to allocate my time -- if it's fixed soon, I'll just
put the 7.0 RPM's on my back burner today, and wait on the fix --
otherwise, I'm going to go back to building without the perl client for
now for my testing, as I have several other issues to deal with.

Well, after following the thread down a ways, I saw his reply to Hiroshi
stating to the effect that he was going to take off for a bit, but that
he'd be back. Probably needed a breather.

I have a poem about Someone, Everyone, and Anyone.... Thanks, Tom. If
I need to just apply a patch for build purposes, that's fine. I'm just
trying to get my build-act together, as 7.0 is quite different from a
packaging standpoint than 6.5.x, at least from 'my' packaging
standpoint.
