The services.db file is maintained manually.  (Note that, though all
the other files in that directory have modtimes that match the last
dcms, /moira/dcm/hesiod/services.db doesn't get updated.)

Sigh.  When I wrote in [887] that I'd applly the patch "soon," I meant
when I caught up to that transaction in the disuss meeting.  I'm still
10 transactions short.  (I read it in email.)

Both NFS and Hesiod dcms generate files in subdirs and tar them up for
the .out files that gets propagated.  When an NFS server retires, the
previously generated files for it remain until manually deleted,
getting tar'd into every nfs.out file in the meantime.  I suspect
that's some of what you saw.  I'm seeing some other differences that
don't have as obvious an explanation, but they should all be
attributable to normal changes in the Moira DB.
