Ok, I've got it fixed.  It's going to have to have an .sl3. in the name, but we 
have to do what we have to do.
What went wrong?
I built it on a new machine.  This new machine is a SL309 machine, while the 
the original building machine was a SL301 machine, with only a few updated 
packages.
I'm going to be pushing out the new rpm's, and then get out the fine tooth comb 
to figure out what really went wrong.
