If I build the non-posix version (make win+smlnj), it works on Linux (according to Sully who developed it) and Cygwin+SMLNJ-for-Cygwin according to Rowan.

However, on OSX and Karl's Cygwin+SMLNJ-for-Windows platform, bullshit symlink (a.k.a. "cp -r") doesn't work, so "v1.4.5" gets populated but "v1.4" and "v1" do not.

We may need to actually recurse through directory structures and copy files...
