That should do it.  I mostly use readline and some diagnostics about
which byte in the stream I'm currently at.  I'll look into; I've got
several things to work on at the moment, so this may take a little
while for me to get to.

Yeah.  We lost another hard drive.  Actually, the server physically
moved across town, so we're hoping it is just a bad wire.  Ironically,
the drives are RAIDed, so we didn't lose any data; however, when we
set up the RAID, for some reason we didn't RAID the swap space ... so
when the drive went down, it took the kernel with it, which is why you
couldn't access the machine.  It should only have been down for a
couple of hours, though, and we've fixed the RAID issue, so we should
be golden.
