So on Friday afternoon I found that ORBit-in-CVS has much more of the IR than 0.5.0 did - and built it, which requires more frobbing with libraries than would superficially seem necessary (cries of `no! f**k off! I have got popt installed, I built it not five minutes ago' were heard around the office). orbit-irfeed now blows up in a different place to the one it did before, but after reading relevant ORBit bits I find that it's actually my fault this time. I can't create interfaces which dont inherit from anything, which I guess is fair enough.
