53a32e18d8 The rate between EUR and USD has never been as large as our old value
(1.12) since the introductions as a common EU currency.  Anyway, since
the rate now seems to stabilize just around 1.00, fix up our value
here.

808a36ef65 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.
