Sounds good.  I'll leave the uploading to Jeff, assuming it happens
fairly fast after the discover1 packages are uploaded.  I do not want
the discover1 packages to hit the archive without the discover 2
packages following shortly after. :)

Checking the differences, I believe you are right.  Only the PCMCIA
header code is changed.  On the negative side, the version in
subversion do not seem to work.  At least I get this error message
when I build it in my unstable chroot:

  checking for check - version >= 0.8.2... no
  *** Could not run check test program, checking why...
  *** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for
  *** the exact error that occurred.
  You will not be able to run the test suite, no worries.

I got around the problem using this patch:
