Yeah. That's a problem. The difficulty with cobbling something together
from someone else's code for a complicated algorithm like this is that
by the time you've figured out how it works well enough to make the
modifications you need, you might just as well have rolled your own.
You'd be sure to get what you wanted from it and, from what I've seen of
some of the C sources available to do this, I'd end up with something
much more readily understood and maintained.

Unless someone can point me at a package that provides the ops I need, I
think I'm going to get stuck rolling my own. Pity. :-(
