And then there is that oddity where the "SqC Internal Updates*" group
shows up now in the latest 3.6alpha, which somehow snuck in during the
network rewrite. I can take a look at that... probably just need a
do-it which removes that server from some server list. (Although having
the extra group is harmless for now, there are no extra updates in there.)
