Most users want to install the MNJ - even if you are installing 31DEC08
you can expect there to be a dozen or so changes over the next year.
With a binary installation, the only way to get those changes is with
the MNJ. This does mean that you should install cvs on your computer.
It is readily available for Macs. If you really do not want to do this,
just hit Enter at the above question and install.pl will go on after
warning that the MNJ will not be correct.
