Please do!  I think you will be able to test this better than we could,
since you seems to have the environment up and running on several
hosts.  I'll try to do code review, but don't let that stop you from
pushing things into the repository...

...within reason, I still think we should try to get a release out ASAP.
I'll take a look at the latest platform-testers report, but we may
simply declare that we aren't portable to some systems.
