> It installs (whether or not it works I don't know), but there is no
entry in SPKG.txt and the version number is the same as before, so
effectively any record of the changes is going to be lost.

an entry added to SPKG.txt to indicate what changes have been made.
OK, so here is the version with with consistent numbering. That _2, etc,
was originally due to David Joyner, and not consistent with anything. So I
removed that _2 from the name, and added p0.

Regarding SPKG.txt, I followed the predecessors, who didn't bother with
it. :-)
Well, it's an optional package, and I will to update it soon with more GAP
packages (and make SPKG.txt good and proper...).
