	OK, that's cool.  I did notice after I sent this mail that the commit 
did indeed fail (though it wasn't obvious that it was read-only).  I'm 
running dists--release-tla--1.1--patch-5

	I also confirmed that did not break my original archive...I screwed 
around in my .arch-params directory and got it working happily again.

        I am curious, though...what is the point of mirrors?
