Sorry, I did see it, but I forgot.  Would it be sensible then to
delete the outdated sun-5.8 results?

(actually I'd much prefer if someone could just install Python
there -- it will be a little while before I can have SunOS up and
running here)

But I'd still like to know if we have <sysinclude> capability in v2.
Some other reports I saw indicated that it might be needed for SunOS.
