I've done a first round through the grimoire and a lot of spells were 
skipped due to brokenness, so I expect a re-run will find even more 
issues.  Through the weekend I will triage the rest of the bugs filed, 
but I have one question to ask of everybody:

Should the spells that depend on z-rejected spells be moved until they 
can have that restriction lifted?

There are spells that depend on a z-rejected spell that aren't rejected 
because they could conceivably be run on code that wasn't rejected if we 
had a spell for it and got it to work with it.  I'm talking mostly about 
anything we have that's java-based.  I'm inclined just to say that java 
should be its own grimoire (sequestered) until we can get the spells to 
actually build/run in gcj or some other java compiler/runtime.  Thus 
they're provisionally rejected, in a way since they can't be built with 
our system without a rejected spell.
