There is a package description on the tracker

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1885674&group_id=17203&atid=414256

which should work.

I haven't taken a look yet at the most recent iteration of it because  
I've been busy; and I've been holding off on committing anything because

1)  It originally did build-time optimization that caused it not to  
build identically on all machines of the same architecture.
2)  The package is maintained, and I don't want to step on any toes.

However, the maintainer is likely going to be -extremely- busy  
starting next week, so maybe we ought to add it....
