I notice there's a TODO in the Contrib Guide about making multiple 
versions of LP coexist on the same system.  This is something I would 
need to do to test these snippets, since I'm always runnning the latest 
development version.  I'm not sure how to make 2.12 available at the 
same time.  Can someone point me in the right direction?  If I get it 
working then maybe I could also update that part of the CG.

I could start checking snippets a few at a time at night after the kids 
are in bed once I get 2.12 running.

BTW, Graham, in the 2.12 docs, CG 1.1.2 "Main source code" it still says 
"FIXME test this" for the git commands.  The 2.13 version of same 
doesn't say this.  The commands work perfectly (I used them yesterday 
after a reinstall of my OS).  I could go in and delete the "FIXME" 
stuff, but I'm not sure where to get at the 2.12 source files.  I'm 
pretty sure my whole git repo is 2.13. How do I make a change to the 
2.12 docs?
