Thank you. I'll tell you if i stumble upon it. Up to now, all my tests
have worked.

Just for the record, here is a grab file that uses all the available
headers (if i haven't missed anything inspecting the sources):

------->8-------------------->8------------------------------

Archive-Name: address@hidden
Archive-Location: http://tao.uab.es/jao/archives/2004
Target-Revision: dists--psi--1.0
Target-Directory: psi
Target-Config: configs/devo

-------8<--------------------8<------------------------------

Given this archive, tla grab will get the dists--psi--1.0 archive into
the directory 'psi', and run 'tla build-config devo' inside it.

HTH,
jao
