Aha.

OK, then. I've uploaded a second release candidate of JSW64:MM, and
a first release candidate of JSW64:Dragon. Changes in JSW64:MM are:

* Guardians will probably come out all right now (I did some
comparisons with JSW:MM to check that our algorithms come out roughly
the same).
* The Kong code now redraws the portal, so that the falling Kong falls
into it rather than in front of it.
* The converter now deals with blank guardians; this means that some
missing guardians are present.
* Eugene's bounds have been tweaked.

I haven't changed anything in JSW64:Dragon beyond using the latest
game engine.
