I never found a utilities tarball.  (I looked for a while.)

I ended up following the link to CVS, wandering around in there for a bit 
until I found the uml_router directory (at which point I remembered reading 
about the old name) doing a right-click save-as on the "download" link of 
the .c file, then grabbing the .h files it couldn't find, then grabbing 
port.c and hash.c too...  Then it built.

I'll look again for the tarball next time I'm online.  (Laptop at Einstein's 
bagels at the moment: no net access.)
