miki said something to me about this being necessary; you should
probably confer with her.

This should really be put in the 8.0B script so that anyone has it,
and has already taken 8.0A has the link removed. I assume 8.0B will
happen at some point. (yes, this is anal, but I think it needs to
be.)

It is fairly consistant on my machine. I suppose we can see if there
is something weird that 8.0B cleans up, since I haven't demonstrated
it on any other machine.

I assume 8.0B will cause this to happen.
