Kieren, et. al.-

(Mac OS 10.2.8, Fink gcc3.3 unstable enabled)

The upgrade worked as above, except that
1. I used a /sw/fink/10.2-gcc3.3/local directory to discourage 
interference with future distributions, and
2. I left the db42-shlibs depends in place since it was already 
installed on my machine.

The convert-ly process has run smoothly so far and the results are 
noticeably nicer!

Thanks-
