[Users] GetComponents: Purely local thorns

[Eric Seidel]

I just committed a small change to GetComponents which prioritizes TYPE = 'ignore' over all methods of checking for thorn existence. If CactusNumerical/InterpToArray is under local cvs/svn control that could have caused GetComponents to flag it as needing an update. That in turn would cause an error when it tries to find the value associated with 'ignore' in the checkout_types hash.

Let me know if that works. The other possibility is that there could have been some kind of error while parsing the thornlist that gave you a TYPE = ' '...
