Okay, time for some more updates.  The last build had a line of v's and
a line of ^'s in CMakeLists.txt and wouldn't work at all.  This one
gives the following errors:

$ cmake /opt/chicken/darcs
-- C_STACK_GROWS_DOWNWARD=1
-- CHICKEN_HOME is NOT set in your environment.
-- Searching system PATHs for Chicken.
-- Chicken 2000300 required; using 2004100.

        You are obviously being too picky.

        Felix's last set of patches has gotten rid of nsample altogether.

        I don't know what this is about at all.
