We're currently running with 3.0.17.9

We got the it working around 3/29, the day before we were to switch
back from the Pyramid MIServer we run using to our Symmetry.

We had a number of problems at first getting it to run at all, but then
we've got a lot running on it (ok, so you could say we're abusing it).
There are a few problems we've noticed so far, but it seems to be okay.

I wasn't the one lucky enough to fool with the upgrade :-)  You may
be able to get some more useful info out of asp@uunet.uu.net who did
all the hair pulling
