As such, it looks like the automated build was updating its tree at about the same time as Chris Moller commiting the test for kernel buf 232837. The result was that the incremental update tree contained the Makefile.am from the commit but not the kernel232837 directory with the actual test case. Obviously, this broke the build. There isn't really any good solution to this problem in terms of CVS, since we obviously wouldn't want to do a full lock on the tree for the purpose of doing build-and-test run checkouts and update. As such, be forewarned that we're going to have days where the build will be reported as failing without there really being a mistake on anyone's part. I'll kick off a manual run this morning, and post those results in lieu of last night's results. Cheers, Kris
