Ok.  Will do.  Should be able to get something together this evening.
There is a scheme already in place in the patches I posted which
should work for silver.  Only the patches to the top-level Makefiles
need to be changed to build 2.6.8pre by default instead of the
`gclcvs' stanza.

Note that this is for the purpose of developing the patchset.  When
gcl officially goes 2.7.0 I have absolutely no issue with caching a
`known good version' in the tree for end-user purposes.
