I have not yet figured out how to  makepkg  to configure a new  BL3 
installation to the way the old one was.

Just put together this script, haven't yet tried it.

Since the C: drive is accessible from a fresh installation of BL3, I 
would save copies of the files I want there, and why not in the C:/baslin 
directory.  

#!/bin/sh
# put this  fixit  file in the C:\baslin directory
# run it from there
