Livio,
     Thanks for reminding us of the problem.

All,
     I believe we have committed a fix, that removes the dependency on the
non-epxorted module.  We are now syncing to kcvs so hopefully by about
5pmEST the tree should be working again.  Livio is going to confirm but
please let us know if there is any more troubles.
