Ah, crap.  I forgot about this aspect of the release.  Guess I should
have pushed up the respun DVD to match the split CDs.

So, I'm somewhat at a loss here of what I should do.  I could push up
the slightly changed DVD and new SHA1SUM/jigdo files for that changed
DVD, but that means the mirrors may be out of sync for the release.  OR
we can have jigdo fail for generating the x86_64 DVD.  From the looks of
jigdo, the only way to fix this is to push a new DVD or to drop the
changed comps file somewhere else and hand edit the DVD jigdo file.

Thoughts?
