Agreed, that's something I also thought about then promptly forgot as it was
so long since the 1.73 release. Sadly, it is a manual process but not a
difficult one (as long as you remember every component which goes into
making up the !Printers release; there are about 12).

There are other (more and less problematic) components which have similar
issues, such as !Boot and !Draw.
