This is very strange, because the online documentation gets
the files via Savannah! Are you sure that you did not download
some files a few weeks ago, and that they changed in the meanwhile.
You can browse the CVS site and check all differences too.

I suggest you to upload it on Savannah using CVS and send me an email.
I will install something for automatic notification of changes later.

Not yet.

Don't hesitate to ask us other questions and thanks for
