Of course.  I'll collect it all in the git repo I pointed to earlier.

By now I've gotten almost all packages from [extra] compiled.  So far
I've skipped OpenGL/GLUT since these packages have been drastically
re-arranged in the recent releases.  I'm wondering whether it's worth
including them at all if HP is dropped.  (Are there usage statistics
to consult somewhere?)

I invented the term Object-Oriented, and I can tell you I did not have
C++ in mind.
