There were intermediate points at which certain versions of EGCS would
compile certain versions of POOMA -- but never a released version of
EGCS and a released version of POOMA.

No -- this really isn't something I can control.  I can say when to
stop -- but I can't make volunteers volunteer.

There was a typo on the board -- it's `pooma-dev' not `pooma-devl'.
