It is undoning the temporary code a few patches before did and
bringing it back to the way it was in part 1.
It is ugly, the programmer requires that the target be properly
constructed but the way I migrated the CD code over doesn't guarentee
proper construction until we reach this patch because it edits the
current CD..
So there is this inbetween step where the programming code has to fix
an improperly constructed thing.
I didn't try too hard to simplify this, let me look again.
