Okay, I'm still really hazy on how git works, but the patch ought to be
here:

http://github.com/davidgiven/prex/commit/e6a1f3b63804afe5fa86c00fc085b885d52626e1

I've tested it with x86-nommu and it appears to work fine. Comments, please.

Do you use any kind of version control system internally? If so, what's
the easiest way of getting changes to you?

Right now the build system is building the mkcromdisk tool with a simple:

    cc -o $@ $< -lz

...which ought to work on pretty much all Unixoids. The zlib dependency
is a pain but it's the easiest way of doing it.
