Oops; oversights by us :-)

I've got vhba-module, pcsc-tools, and tesseract in my git branch
now, and supertuxkart went into the last public update, so other
than Nevow (allmydata-tahoe), all of these should be good now.

We'll wait on Marco for Nevow  :-)

Thanks for the heads-up, and by the way, your queue file repo
is awesome!
