This is the second posting (some of the changesets are new this time
around). It all builds and runs for me, but a lot of this work affects
some of the oldest, most cobweb-filled code around, and I sure don't
have that hardware. Some others have looked at, but I'm not sure how
deeply.
The basic concept of this work is straightforward, so I have good reason
to hope I've not done anything really stupid.
