Sadly, yes.  Alexander posted his code in several revisions here, at 
least 3 times over the last 2 years.  It's our fault that this code is 
not yet in CVS; reviewing it is still on my todo (but don't let that 
prevent you from reviewing it yourself ;-).

Releasing the code as a library is a good move, IMHO.  It at least lets 
users use the code if they need it.
