no one else ever sees this?  how strange.  in any event, here's the
relevant snippet from fedora-development.repo as it is right now:

...
[development-source]
name=Fedora - Development - Source
#baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/source/SRPMS/
mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=rawhide-source&arch=$basearch
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
...

  i see nothing obviously amiss there, and i tend to not muck around
in these files.  i'll do those other tests shortly.
