doesn't look very promising :(  Anyway, I just built it. I'll play with
it and if I find it interesting and useful I'd eventually try to produce
the ebuild. At least, it should be a learning experience :-)

Now, suppose I get to convince a developer that this is a good thing to add
to portage. In this case, who is in charge of mask/unmask the program,
keep it up to date, etc.?

Thanks!
