Well, yes... and my communication was poor and inadequate as I had
indeed checked that file for freshness.

I had done make collect at all the appropriate junctures as well.
 
Somehow, the server/trunk/lib/arch was an actual folder rather than a
symlink to arch/trunk.  Perhaps I did that in some long forgotten

I wonder though, if there is a better way to manage that link...
