  you say that like it's a bad thing.  oh, wait ... in any event, i'm
willing to spend a bit of time to figure out just how runnable it is
and the proper way to install and configure it, so if anyone else
wants to play along, they're welcome to.  at the moment, i'm giving up
on the package-based install and building from the tarball, which lets
me get a bit further along.

  if i figure out how to fix a few things, i can always just bugzilla
it and hope it gets in.
