 Since there was no objection, I proceeded to do the same kind of revisions
 I did in the patch for ''config/init/hints/darwin.pm''.  I then examined
 ''lib/Parrot/Config/Generated.pm'' and ''config_lib.pasm'' and got
 satisfactory results.  ''make'' then proceeded without incident.

 Buoyed by those results, I then extended those revisions to all the OSes
 for which there exist ''config/init/hints/*.pm'' files and which held
 either `SHARE_EXT` or `SOVERSION`.  I then applied the patch to trunk in
 r39871.

 Granted, this means I'm applying a patch to hints for OSes to which I do
 not have access.  However, we're at a point in the monthly cycle where we
 can get away with this because we will get build failures quickly (I
 hope!).

 Comments?  Thank you very much.
