I was going to raise the alarm before, but too many other priorities
put Plan 9 on backburner.

That said, I abandoned a "pull -v" to its own devices and I see that
it actually overcame obstacles and proceeded past the blocking point.
I left it running when it reached:

	...
	d sys/man/4/sacfs 664 sys sys 1338508171
	d 386/ld.com 775 sys sys 1252805896

	c sys/src/cmd/6c/cgen.c
	c sys/src/9/omap/fpiarm.c
	c sys/src/9/bitsy/fpiarm.c

and sat, and sat, and sat.

But I see now that it got going again, no idea when or how long after
the above:

	c sys/src/9/bitsy/mmu.c
	c sys/src/9/kw/fpiarm.c
	! sys/lib/man/lookman/index: locally modified; will not overwrite

	! sys/man/1/INDEX.html: locally modified; will not overwrite
	! sys/man/8/INDEX: locally modified; will not overwrite
	! sys/man/8/INDEX.html: locally modified; will not overwrite
	c sys/src/cmd/unix/drawterm/Make.unix
	a sys/src/cmd/unix/drawterm/posix-arm 20000000775 sys sys 1341726550
	a sys/src/cmd/unix/drawterm/posix-arm/Makefile 664 sys sys 1341726493
	a sys/src/cmd/unix/drawterm/posix-arm/getcallerpc.c 664 sys sys 1341726493
	a sys/src/cmd/unix/drawterm/posix-arm/md5block.c 664 sys sys 1341726493
	...

so maybe patience is the critical issue here?  Or an error somewhere?

I'm going to try again.  Yep, it seems to jam somewhere, if it unjams
I'll let the list know.
