| 
|         src/ncl.original/

| 
|         $ svn rm pkg/src/ncl.original
|         $ svn ci pkg -m'remove unused parts of ncl library'
|

I think we can do 

          $ svn rm pkg/src/ncl.original

to clean up a little more.  Comments, anyone?

| Hadn't noticed.
| 
| | and nxsemptyblock.cpp appears not to be used either. 
| 
| That one actually blocks building which is why I #ifdef'ed it out.
| 
| Oh, the sweet sound of progress :)
