Neil, I see you've marked this bug as pending. Thanks for fixing my
patch up. I applologize this didn't get back to the top of my TODO
list quickly enough.

The logical errors you mentioned were oversights, and the new trim
function and other oddities were just my naïveté with perl. You've
faithfully implemented the intent of my prototype.

I've just given your version from Subversion a spin here, and it
works great.

Yep, that's the mode in which I usually use it--building filesystems
for armel on amd64.

Thanks again for the useful tool,
