Let's get the individual builds working first, since I don't believe any
of the PLs right now are ready to be "standalone builds"? Then we can
look into 'integrating' them into one 'kitchen sink tar ball', once we
have something to work with ...

Once we have the first one in place, I'll modify mk-snapshot so that it
does its regular 'make dist-split' for the 'core', does a tar ball for the
pl, and also does a 'meta package' that includes both, to give a 'base' to
work from ...

But we need at least one of them ready for a standalone build first ...
