[Server-devel] Odd Libertas load error

Dennis correctly debugged the problem.   This is due to the
attempt to produce a build for 586 machines, hoping to
run on the VIA C3.

I'm building 162 right now, which should fix this problem.
I became aware of it last night.   I guess all the build 161
installs I did were AP based...

I'm also taking the opportunity to fix another 161 "improvement"
which triggers problems with domain_config.
(Already checked into xs-config 2.7.1r2)   I had a script which
over-wrote /etc/resolv.conf after dhclient wrote it, but it was
erroneously keeping some of the DNS servers.  Instead of
fixing it, in build 161 I deleted it...

I'll do some smoke testing of 162 this morning.
