Ok, I did some more tests and found something really, really weird.  I
wanted to see if I could patch a freshly 'gotten' tree inorder to commit. 
So:

address@hidden prj $ tla get
address@hidden/xmldoom--mainline--0.0 xmldoom.test
address@hidden's password:
* from pristine cache:
address@hidden/xmldoom--mainline--0.0--patch-6
* making pristine copy
* tree version set address@hidden/xmldoom--mainline--0.0

I looked at what it put in xmldoom.test and it isn't the right code!! 
This is at least several weeks old.  I'm thinking that this 'pristine
cache' is out of date.  So where is it and how can I clean it?

Thank you.
