they don't seem to explain why we get these messages
now when we didn't before feb 2003.

but... a little searching back through the dump (oh for a faster
worm!) shows that the only reason that the messages
are printed now (and weren't before) is that the check
was not made before, not that the problem wasn't happening.

so i guess the needling is worth it.
