Well, do you have a bug tracker?  A git repo that you can pull my
changes to?  Anything like that?

Really, what I did wasn't rocket science.  I unpacked the files, typed
"make" in the subdirs, got a bunch of error messages causing the build
to fail, so I poked stuff til the build was successful (though there
were still a lot of warning messages).  That meant updating the
makefiles and making a couple of small hacks in the source files as I
said.

I can put up a tarball or a git repo of my hacked version if you want,
but I figured it was enough to just generally describe what I did, since
you can presumably do the same thing in a minute or two, if you have a
Un*x system.  The patch I made to fix the gen/emit conflict was not
really an acceptable one for releasable code (I just #ifdef'd out the
global declaration for the file having the conflict), so you probably
want to handle that in a different way anyway.
