Is it a problem with the sources or with the way they were built? If the
former, then the only way to get it fixed will be to release a cvs
1.12.13.1 or 1.12.14. Both of which have the new OpenPGP patch still
being shaken down, so it may be a another month yet before everything is
clean.

An interesting idea. How will this be accomplished? Using CygWin
perhaps?

You will need a shell with the following:

    functions
    test
    eval

as well as the external utilities:

    awk
    cat
    cp
    diff
    expr
    find
    gpg (optional)
    id
    mkdir
    rm
    rsync (optional)
    sed
    sleep
    ssh (well, a 'remote shell' either a 'rsh' or 'ssh')
    touch
    tr

If those exist, then you have a chance to get the sanity.sh working.
