Also, when you finally get Agda compiled, be carefult to check out the
Agda library as well at the same time, since it also evolves quickly and
in the same kind of lockstep, apparently (e.g. it already uses → and λ,
even tho these were added to Agda pretty recently).

What it means for me is "now that I got a working Agda and library,
I'll stick to it for a (long) while".  Which is kind of a pity for
a package that evolves so quickly.

So my question is: why is it that the latest Agda code always has to
depend on the very latest of everything else.
