	Ok.

	Think I found another bug, one that could be changed in to a "feature" ;-).

	It is assumed that you have already downloaded the binary using setup.exe -4.

	When uninstalling a binary package, such as patch, from setup.exe, the logical result is 
that the patch binary is removed.

	You can then, using snapshot -4, download the source by selecting revision 0.0 and setting 
"src=ticked".  Interesting.  The funny/interesting thing is that if you have the binary installed, revision 
0.0 does not appear ;-).  Revision 0.0 only appears after an uninstall of the binary package has 
occurred, or at least so it would seem.

	Anyway.  Just something I found...;-)
