I did and it works - at least the non-graphical parts of it work. I don't
know about the graphical user interface part of it, because I haven't
yet gotten xfree v4 to work.

But anyway, that's not the problem. I don't need the binary package to
work both on potato and on woody - I just want an easy way to create two
different versions of the binary package, one that works on potato
and one that works on woody.
