I certainly hope they'll do "the same".  But they may implement it in stages, 
and they have no particular reason to release other tools like "unsweeten" and 
"sweeten".  So someone might want to install some of our tools, but not all of 
them.

I suppose a plausible alternative would be some sort of auto-detect in the 
./configure, to figure out which parts should be installed.  We then have to 
detect which ones are "ours" and should be overwritten, vs. "someone else's".  
I guess we can insert special symbols to enable easy self-detection.
