Hi,
I built a fresh CVS parrot with garbage collection and linked parrot

(Hmm.. we should really fix the FAQ.)
If the pdd is amended, let's not forget to update the check_source script-
for that matter, if there are any other items that should be added
(perhaps some specific checks for the embedding headers), let me know-
I'll be happy to add them.
