They're kind of stingy on disk space at work, and I don't have enough in
my home directory to install automake/autoconf/etc without deleting a
bunch of other stuff that I need. Without those things I can't test a
cvs load, since you need them to generate the configure file (I think).

Actually, the install for 7.10.5 isn't finding files that are there now.
It must be something in my environment.

On another note, I'll look at implementing your suggestion about
flagging timed out FTP connections, hopefully this weekend.
