I've got a build, and oddly the *test* programs seem to work fairly 
well, but wish itself (interactive or scripted) does not.  What I need 
to do is tease out all my patches into smaller, related chunks and then 
analyze them (and the behavior).  Maybe I "went too far" and by 
eliminating some of my changes I could fix the problem -- if my possible 
overzealousness caused the issue.  git-bisect is your friend (assuming 
you have more than just one giant single commit :-(  -- in which case 
"git rebase --interactive/git-add -patch" to the rescue 
http://tomayko.com/writings/the-thing-about-git)

Or, splitting up the giant commit and analyzing the pieces may help 
convince me they are all needed, the problem lies elsewhere, and I need 
to patch even more.  Dunno yet.

But that's hard -- debugging an *interpreter* is decidedly nontrivial -- 
and I've had zero free time lately.
