Gee, that makes two of us. :-)  Mine isn't aptable yet, but I've posted 
the URL here before, everything is in: 
http://lyre.mit.edu/~powell/evolution/ (was hoping to work up to an 
evolution 1.2.2 backport, but I'm not there yet...)

I'll give your packages a brief look in a week or two, and see if I've 
got anything to contribute (likely not); feel free to look over my 
.diff.gzs too.  I'd love to see this on apt-get.org... (but haven't 
checked, and am offline -- you may be there already for all I know).

Zeen,
