I apologize for not being able to find more time to devote to the
native-comp branch.  (I did work on it silently by preparing my main
development system to be ready for building the branch, which turned
out to be a non-trivial project, for reasons that will remain unsaid,
as they aren't interesting to anyone but myself.  I also try to speak
up when issues emerge on which I have something useful to say.)

Thank you for your perseverance and all the hard work you invest in
this important feature.  Please don't give up.  We _will_ merge this
branch soon, I hope.
