Just to be sure: You know, that the old repositories are deprecated and
that Jam is our preferred build tool?

At least the sources should reside in the `current' module. Jamfiles, I
think, are completely missing. I asked David the other day whether I could
help with them, but, as he planned to migrate the code to the OBOS kernel,
this had been postponed.

Anyway, unless there are very good reasons to use the old repository, I
strongly recommend using the new one. I can give you a hand with the
Jamfiles. If you tell me which Makefiles shall be converted, I'll try and
create respective Jamfiles.
