Done.

With this package, I'm starting to run into the problem that my primary
system, and the one with all the disk space, is i386 because I originally
built it back when that seemed like a good decision for some reasons (like
Flash support in browsers).  I've been building the amd64 version of this
package on a VM that we use to build packages for work, but that system
has very little disk space, and it's getting increasingly hard to do the
amd64 builds.

This isn't anything you can fix, or any problem with the package, but I
just wanted to warn that I may have to scramble more and more to find a
good environment in which to build it, since it requires 4-5GB of free
disk space to build.  In the long run, I'm going to try to migrate my
environment over to amd64, but it's going to take me a while.
