Really?  I've been knocking it down hard, and making steady progress
on _my_ problems, anyway.   A reconfiguration of test
machines at OSL caused the entire Boost.Python library to start
failing on one of their machines yesterday, but the problem has been
diagnosed.  It's a momentary glitch, I assure you.

Yes.  You're welcome to pitch in by clearing inspection reports and/or
regressions if you want to help move things along.

Yes; we will change repositories and release procedures after 1.34 in
order to keep this from happening again.
