portsnap does not work for src.  (I thought we had already covered that
in earlier threads?)  portsnap only moves forward.  It is a very important
feature for our users that whatever tool they use for source updating be
bidirectional.  In particular it is very common practice to use a bisect
operation to isolate changes responsible for regressions.
