Really?  Where?  How much?  

Does it work with the new hierarchial libraries and with yesterday's
CVS copy of Hugs (i.e., did it work before my commit)?  

Since it is GreenCard generated code, can we just recompile it using
the ffi target instead of the Hugs target?

Does this code rely on any other features of Hugs that we might like
to change?

How long should we keep support for it around? HugsAPI2 has been
deprecated since 2000/12/13.

Is it still likely to be around come the time of the next Hugs
release?

Couldn't you have mentioned this on one of the occasions when I said I
was planning to remove all GreenCard support (as distinct from ffi
support) from Hugs?
