Yes. :-)  I saw it in airport business lounge Internet kiosk.

I will check it out.

... looks good so far as I quickly glanced.  You seemed to kept fine
grainness of *-socket packages.  Any thoughts on this?

I see.

I am wondering that this "static" requirement is really needed by the way
scim program is written or this is some kind of work around for the
limitation of gcc-4.0 bug?  If it is latter, I like this patch to be
only applied for amd64.  (It can be either the use of ifdef in C++ code
or architecture specific dpatch activation with DPATCH_OPTION_CPP=1.  If
it is needed logically for all architecture, please keep it as it is.

Yes.

README.Debian should be updated (at least its title to 1.0.2)
