Thanks.  *That* was what I was looking for, but somehow completely
failed to find it!  Dunno why -- it's right ther in the PackageManagement
contents list...

So now, I have an hpkg that works.  Now I have to get it available.

I'm really reluctant to go through the whole HaikuPorter palaver.
I've spent several days on what I hoped would be a few hours' job
[OK -- learning curve and all that] but it looks like trying to create
a recipe -- and getting it accepted -- is going to be a further major
messy undertaking that I don't have the time or motivation for at
the moment.

So, what to do?
