Broken Live Packages

I have noticed that a few packages are broken in the live version, but fixed in cvs. I can understand unreleased new feature to stay in cvs, but bug fixes?? The 2 packages which are broken are Net_Curl (old style package.xml file) and XML_XPath (error when checking for correct class) Both of these errors are fixed in cvs, but the public have access to the broken ones. Maybe some new packages should be released. If these are no longer maintained, I dont mind doing the rolling to atleast fix them. Mike
