It is the same code, by the same author, about 2 years more up-to-date
than the stuff we have. The author has himself cleaned up most of the
-Wall turds, but there are extra routines. I have used this library on
my system, and it works, buth there are some issues that IMO will need to
be shaken out before it is 2.1 ready. (EG there is an entry point
conflict with our eBones code. Our eBone has a kluge for this, but I
want to fix it properly)

I think this is 2.2 country.
