That's weird.  The capt-of documentation recommend the float.sty way of
adding new environments.

That's a good point.

I updated the patches.

1. Rework captions when float is nil and caption is not.  Kill usage of
   [H] as it's the same as a nonfloat.  A src block is always a nonfloat
   unless it is not.
2. Update documentation. 
3. Kill float dependency.

Does anybody disagree to especially the third change?  Otherwise I'll push
it.
