As you've probably seen, I'm steadily adding packages
to the add-ons.  Another one is going up in the next
few hours.

I've already compiled lots of stuff, but Xvesa refuses
to work with most of it.  Someday I may discover whether
the Xvesa problem is fixable (and how), but until then
I'm only uploading the stuff that Xvesa likes (or stuff
that doesn't require X).

I managed to compile a reasonably up-to-date version of 
GTK (which would enable us to use many nice applications).
But unfortunately (you guessed it) Xvesa doesn't like GTK.
So I'm looking at other options now.

Cheers,
Steven
