Do you have a specific date/time for the start of that thread?  I found a couple
of things that seem unrelated.  The one post I saw on 2011-01-05 has a response
from someone saying it was a bug in the upgradeprovision script and they were
pushing a fix to git.  I should have that already.

Also, I deleted all my binaries before building in case it would try to use old
libraries.

upgradeprovision --version
