Beta 18 was much slower.  The latest stuff is much better, performance-wise
although there are still improvements to be made.  The other thing is that
my compile includes packages that were not present in beta 18 (such as the
full distributions of tcl, tk, itcl, and tix).

I should be in a better position to give a timeframe for beta 19 as soon as
the configure process is more stable again.  (As I mentioned earlier, we're
in the process of getting signal handling working better and there are
still bugs to overcome).
