There were breakages all over the place - all due to changes in the last 
couple of months, which makes sense now!  It's rather impressive just how 
quickly it's diverged and how many things broke.  Once I've ported Xenbus 
I'll hopefully be done...  It's an educational glimpse into all the recent 
changes anyhow ;-)

Can't say I entirely blame you :-)  Where do the e-mails go?  It seems like 
they could usefully go to a (separate?) list, if they're only once daily.  Of 
course if they can go on the web like the regression test results that'd also 
be cool.

Cheers,
Mark
