rosinstall was missing from the 'known issues' section of the
migration guide, so I have added it:
http://ros.org/wiki/fuerte/Migration
If you look at the 'stack-fixing quickstart', it describes the full
workflow we have used internally to work with fuerte. We have been
using the "rosco" tool instead of "rosinstall", which is why we (I)
forgot to add it to the migration guide. Tully is nearly complete
with the new version of rosinstall to fully support fuerte.

That's an interesting/good report. I'm not sure what to do about that
one. rosdep is being migrated to be like rosinstall, i.e. external to
any particular distribution. This path issue is going to cause a
headache that I'm not sure how to fix it. At the heart of it is how
setup.sh scripts should set *PATH variables that are ROS-independent
(PATH, PYTHONPATH).
