Yep.

And if we can't even check out from SVN the chances of merging a largish lib 
like Boost.Math from Trunk to release is basically zero: that's something 
that *can't* be done incrementally.  In fact I'm only checking out the 
release branch again because a merge went bad and I had to delete libs/ and 
then update to get a clean copy.  But I can't even do that it seems :-(
