Ditto.  control-center-0.99.3.1 diffs have the same problem.  Maybe diffs
aren't such a good idea for some packages...

Thanks for identifying the problem- now I'm going to go back and re-download
the tarballs, and maybe E won't crash on me when I try to move a window!  (Just
lost a half-hour email.  Oh no!)

Speaking of which, maybe this list can help me: how do I run E in gdb??  I try
starting with an xterm and "gdb enlightenment", but when E bombs, the xterm
freezes too, so it's useless.  X still seems to function somewhat, because I
can move the cursor and ctrl-alt-backspace gets me out.  Linux/Alpha
2.2.0-final, XFree86-3.3.3-1.alpha.rpm.  (Wrote e-develop, but no reply.)
