   You can get the libraries by applying the source diffs and building
   them.  [...]

Unfortunately, we don't have a source license.  :-(  So source diffs
aren't much good to us.

   For a variety of reasons, we're not distributing the libraries as part
   of the binary distributions.

Can I ask what the reasons might be?  It's not for legal reasons, is
it?  (Other distributions (i.e. the linux one) seem to have all the
libraries included...)

Thanks for the info,

Jon
