I built and uploaded a snapshot now: http://www.nitros9.org/latest/

If anything is terribly broken, David's older build is still available
under http://www.nitros9.org/latest-201301/ but please report any bugs
or problems! Reports might get lost here on the list so
http://sourceforge.net/p/nitros9/bugs/ is the preferred venue.

For information, building took 6 minutes on a Pentium M1.6 with 2GB
RAM. Note to self and fixme: On a clean hg pull do "mkdir dsks"
otherwise os9 dies in infinite recursion and buffer overflow.
