I experienced problems importing the 20060817 enwiki dumps using 
MediaWiki 1.7.1 with the machine translation project, so I put together 
a bzip2 package with MediaWiki 1.7.1 with all the extensions and PHP 
fixes necessary to use the Wikipedia  enwiki dumps which also includes 
all the support extensions for Native Cherokee and other Machine 
translation projects.  The updated bzip2 package may be useful to others 
since the released MediaWiki 1.7.1 does not run with the XML dumps 
currently published by the Wikimedia Foundation without all these fixes 
and extensions included and configured.
