Probably too soon to rebuild all the packages.  See below.

Why hand-edit it?  Just make the pkg/COMMENT changes I suggested and
then run another `make index' from the top.  That way you've at least
preserved your investment in proper comments for the future and you
make myself and John Fieber happy.  re-Making the index doesn't take
anywhere near as much time as remaking all the packages.. :-)

Indeed!
