I got an offer from Bo Xiao to test it, and he said he'd be able to turn
it around fairly promptly, so I'll wait a day or so.  I'll do celvis in
the meantime.  Oh, yes, I'd like a Chinese directory, yes, would you do
that?  Thanks! 

If anyone wants to volunteer to do functionality testing on Chinese ports,
let me know your name.  I'll keep it around, because I really dislike
putting anything in ports without testing, even if it compiles and
installs cleanly.  My own port of the latest tcl-dp compiles and installs
fine, but it's got some bug in functionality (I'm not directly connected,
this is hard for me to test).  Testing is a GOOD THING (tm).
