Hey, thanks for all the suggestions.  

I checked out CVS HEAD (on Saturday afternoon), and got it all to compile.

I was even able to compile it with -O2.  I don't know how long it took,
 because I did it overnight.  I also don't know how much memory it took,
 but I had killed stuff like galeon first, freeing up much of 1GB of RAM
 for gcc's use.

Now, to actually play with it,
