Ok, I suppose I can try. I've restructured the package for the next
upload. I'll see if I can work it in there (shouldn't be too
difficult). I'm still waiting for a new upstream anyway, so it shouldn't
be too hard to accomplish in the mean time.

I'm not sure if it'll work or not. It can't be autobuilt, which is bad,
but if someone builds it by hand and uploads it, I suppose that would
do...
