Well, see the last two lines, 63 chars long, 10 for "OLD_FILES+=" and
53 chars for the file name. It may be that files were added to the list
by a cut&paste action and that some characters had wrapped around to
the next line and were forgotten. But it is not relevant, just strange.

Yes, and the four lines above are the only ones that do not end in
".gz". I forgot to CC my mail to re_at_, but Michael Bushkov reviewed
it, found that I had replaced one instance of cached too many and
the corrected patch to re_at_ for approval ...
