Actually, I didn't think of that.  I also didn't see this message
until Friday (the next day) due to some network issues, so it's moot.

That notwithstanding, I tried it today (new DATE) and it behaved as
I would like.  The only problem was that dbus-1 is still being rebuilt.
I compared the siginfo files between the two builds and they are
identical, so I don't know why.
