A lot of stuff that should be under fptools/libraries appears to be
missing, e.g.

	fptools/libraries/base/include/Dynamic.h
	fptools/libraries/base/Text/ParserCombinators/Parsec.hs

This may be the known tar incompatibility problem: you need to unpack
the tarball with GNUtar (gtar) instead of Solaris tar.
