   The only fix in there was for the misplaced brace ("}",
"/* This is the most horrible hack ever */").  I haven't
fetched a source kit since 2009-11-20 (as my directory name
should suggest), so if that fix is in, then that's fine.

   Sounds right to me, but I haven't tested much there (or
anywhere else) beyond getting the thing built.


   I did notice one questionable comment in ckvker.com:

$! 01-Feb-07 1.4? sms Added P1 options

where I said "1.4?" instead of "1.41", because I didn't know
if there was anything newer than what I was looking at.
Apparently, this is now known.
