Okay, one update, then I'm getting on with my life.  Somewhere around  
300% the sign changed, the gui progress bar cleared (no doubt related  
to the -300%), the magnitude peaked around 360 and is now working its  
way back down. Fortunately, the packages seem to be getting installed  
in alphabetical order, rather than the order in which they are  
presented in the package selection tree, so I can monitor progress  
alphabetically.
