So now I know what happened.  Release 1442 was installed on ryle in a
temporary directory (by Eric :-)) to compare against 1516.  Both were on
ryle, but the shortcuts were changed to 1442 because it was installed
last.  So a reinstall wasn't needed.  Too late now.  Maybe Eric could
add ryle to the systems that are backed up -- just a suggestion.
