Any forward progress on this? Don't want to rush you, but haven't
heard anything lately on this front.

On a side note, I wonder if this is one of those "I'm new to pacman
development how can I help" type projects- obviously it is a big task,
but having a few people hacking and getting this working would be
sweet.
