This afternoon I was able to try building many of the untouched items
listed on the roadmap page.  I was about 70-80% successful.  I posted
notes on them in either case.  I'm going on vacation until Tuesday,
but after I get back I will read up on the bepfile stuff and then go
back and create the ones for the ones that just worked and needed
small changes to get building.  I'm learning a lot as I go on these.
I think I should be watching the ./configure output a little closer as
some of the WARNINGS might point out other things that might be good
to have ported, such as was the case today with indent.  It's not
required, but might be nice to have, so I attempted that one as well.
For the ones that did fail if anyone cares to look through my notes
and wants to leave some tips on things to try on them next I will
check them when I get back and see if I can get any further on those.
