I'm not sure why my build was so bloated, it was nearly identical to the
YDL 3 release codebase, plus a fix or two to make copy and paste work.
I'm going to start from scratch and see how it goes.  I realize OOo 1.1
is on the docket, but wrapping it into an RPM probably won't happen very
quickly and I'm trying to address the C&P problem as quickly as I can.
