Can you do a "cvs status configure" on your llvm-test configure script 
and make sure the sticky tag is release_16?

Also, does the configure process halt?  Or does it just give an error 
and keep going?

No, no more testing is needed at this point.  I think we just need to 
nail down whether the configure bug is going to be a problem if somebody 
uses 1.6 on Sparc.
