I backed up my GNATS databases, compiled 4.1.0 (on Linux) and installed 
it, and everything looks to be running OK.  I originally tried the 
upgrade because I'm having a problem with my INCOMING bug reports -- 
they all initially appear as pending, then they look OK (ie, move over 
to INCOMING).  GNATS wasn't always doing this, so I'm a little confused 
as to why this is happening.  I'm using gnatsweb 4.00 to submit the bug 
reports.  If I select any other category, the bug goes in OK (and the 
appropriate person is notified).  If I select INCOMING, it's pending and 
gnats-admin gets notified.  Any ideas?

Thanks!
Anna
