    Scott, did you see my response to John's post? I don't consider any of this
    a done deal, but I had to get 9.3.1 in the tree asap in order to try and
    make an MFC before 5.4 goes out. If we collectively decide to strip named
    and friends out of the base, we can still do that. I know how to remove
    files from the vendor branch now. :)
