Oh that's no problem at all, there's no rush :-). Thanks for taking a
look!

The only reason I kept it around is I assumed some people cared since it
was there to begin with, I'm happy to remove it.  What about the pure CL
source version, should I remove that one too? I guess it doesn't hurt to
keep it.

By the way, I need to take a look at the emacs build-farm package, I
hadn't realised you could do that, that's pretty cool!

I'll update the patch.

Thanks,
Pierre
