Your mail to 'Dri-patches' with the subject

    CVS Update: xc (branch: trunk)

Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.

The reason it is being held:

    Post by non-member to a members-only list

Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive
notification of the moderator's decision.
