Okay, through skill, cunning, and subterfuge (plus help from an Ubunu
10.04 LTS alternate CD  with a rescue setting, program zerofree, and
VB's low-level program "vboxmanage modifyhd") I was able to squeeze
the existing VM from almost 6 Gb down to 1.34 Gb!

Now I will go back and add a few things, including updating the
brlcad/trunk, and re-squeeze to see where we are.

Some candidates for deletion:

 + Doxygen
 + all games
