| 200-201 and 205-212 where both failed attempts. (I kept getting the
| name wrong in the Tailor configuration file.) I finally got it right
| in 213-218. Perhaps there are in fact 3 copies of the arch clone?
| Or did I somehow manage to rename one and re-use it?

diff compares files, not history or ancestry.
merge likes to have ancestry, so if you're doing star-merge and the
branches don't have common ancestry, typically SVK/SVK will first
delete then add (which you may think is silly but without ancestry,
that is a reasonable thing to do). That has the effect of
"duplicating" files.
| Are we prepared to cut the automatic connection with Tim's original
| axiom--silver--1? I believe Tim stated that he was no longer prepared
| to maintain this branch anyway. So I assume "yes".
|
| By 252 to 31 do you mean there are 6 copies of the gcl-2.6.8pre
| tarball? I.e. 6 x 20 Mb = 120 Mb.
Do we do that before or after my changes I'm testing? My changes
means we now have gcl/ and noweb/ toplevel subdirectories, and the
corresponding tarballs are gone; lsp/ is renamed to src/lisp.
