The "coolview" sources represent a state of the actual Cygnus development
tree as of whenever that was made.  It's made more progress since then;
right now I'm battling race conditions in the signal code...

Right now I can do a complete configure of the compiler tools (including
tcl/tk) in about 20 minutes and build them in an hour 15 min. which is a 
huge improvement performance-wise.  But signal handling isn't quite as
robust as it needs to be...
