  Thanks.  That did it.  I thought I remembered having to give the
email address (which was annoying, because some had been given with an
old obsolete work address), but this seemed to get them all.

  Presently, something seems strange, as for quite a while, even
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi was saying "no reports
match your query", but that started working again.  I am trying to track
down issues people have had with burncd to see how many match the problem
I reported last year (that was never answered).  I have found one, with
5.3 software, that indicates that the problem is still there.

  Again, thanks, your answer was dead on and helpful.
