*In theory*, it's possible to emit the right patterns from anyplace.
However, after a false start with GUB, I found it easiest to compile with
Apple's own SDK, whose license agreement requires that it be used on Apple
hardware.  We are currently complying with that requirement by doing Mac
builds on a Mac hosted at MacStadium (and whose credentials I should share
with *someone* besides myself; who in the project would be a good candidate
for that?).

Best,
