Folks, I've done my usual frantic weekend checkin to CVS.
Items of note are limited, and boil down to:

* A _start_ on methods to support *un*doing packages;
  things that have a chance of working now include

    ark package unreveal [blah blah blah]

  and

    ark package undeploy [blah blah blah]

  (where undeploying will also unreveal).  You can expect
  uninstall to also undeploy and unreveal, and so on -- the
  usual Sidai-style packaging chain, only in reverse.

  The great thing about this stuff, when done, will be that
  some of the most horrible code in the ARK engine can then
  be *deleted*.

* Package stuff to build the Gimp correctly on Solaris:
  should be there now.
