   * Make `./build debian' do a true Debian source package based
     build; provide the old style build as `./build debian-template'
+  * Have `wiringpi' be a metapackage, and use `wiringpi-tools' as
+    the name of the command line tool package.
+  * Install `gpio' setuid root, and world-executable.  Given that `gpio'
+    doesn't take the kind of precations necessary to avoid offering
+    vulnerabilities, this probably enables all programs on the pi to
+    become root.  However, we do this to avoid howls of protest from users
+    whose cgi programs may no longer work, etc.
