Yes, I'm starting to think the same. I'm not sure how to handle this
atomically. Previously, it looks like auto-upgrading has just been a
matter of rewriting the format file. Now, we need to both rewrite format
and entries, and (but thats not critical) remove empty and redundant props
files. It would be nice if we avoided breaking peoples WCs if something
goes wrong. I'll take a look at using the log mechanism for this in some
way.
