Final Comment

This is a binary upload, so I am accepting it, however there seem to be a number of issues
related to the patches. See the output from cme fix dpkg in the review notes for full
details. Also - a minor point - it is preferable to use the name 'Expat' in reference to
the particular flavour of MIT license used here. cme nags about that too :-)

Thanks!
