Some weirdness:

The following patches to 3.0 appear not to have been applied to 3-HEAD:

11456 "Windows Port: call fdc_open() when opening IPC sockets."

11393 "Fix missing default disk store type into QUICKSTART example."

If they _have_ been applied to 3-HEAD please let me know the number of
the 3-HEAD patch changeset.

Thanks.
Amos
