Thanks for the work.

I'll package up gtkwave 3.1.20 today. While I'm doing that, I'll look at 
what changes you made in your package and pull them in if they look like 
improvements. =)

I'll take a look at verilog[1] if I get time. If I don't upload anything or 
post again here today it means I didn't get to it, so someone else can feel 
free to do it. ;)

[1] As an aside, I think the verilog package really should be called 
icarus-verilog or at least iverilog. It's kind of obnoxious to name a 
package the generic name of a language when it's just one particular 
implementation of many. And the command line program you run isn't even 
called "verilog" anyway! Well, that's work for the future I guess. ;)
