Don't forget that any scripts/Makefiles that refer to ../something may
need to change to ../fptools/something.  Examples might include the
global `mk' files, glafp-utils, and so on.  Of course, those could
all live at the new toplevel as well, provided that checking out the
'fptools' project collected all of them in one operation.
