OK, looking at the geometry package, I added a script to the admin
section "subpkg_collector" that seems to deal with all everything in
there. Takes as argument the path for the development tree of the
package. That is, for geometry package, I call it as in:

$ octave-forge/admin/subpkg_collector.pl octave-forge/main/geometry

The only thing that I think it doesn't deal with is with mutiple
Makefile. It simply merges all of them together and expects the
package mantainer to check it.
