Thanks Nic,

And let's completely remove those "original-*" modules real soon now.
Julian, myself and you are the only people I know who are actually
writing to CVS.  I'm ready to move to the new structure, I assume that
you are too.  So as soon as Julian says he's ready, I say remove them
too and be done with it.

As I said before, the only possible things changing the directory
could break is the build system, but as said before, it's already
pretty broken , and one way to motivate me to fix it, is to have the
repository in the "canonical" setup, otherwise I'll just keep
waiting...

Another reason I'm not concerned about breaking things, is that it's
always possible to build manually if you know where all the source
is.  I mean, it's not like we're removing files.  

I think we should also change "cp-tools" to "misc" or somesuch, to
indicate that it doesn't contain most of the tools, but I'm not too
worried about it, if you think it makes sense to stay the way it is.
