wswap with 0.7?

Hi,

I just tried wswap with the current Familiar 0.7 prerelease, but it
doesn't seem to work. Before I start trying to rewrite it, does anyone
have:
  - a version that works with 0.7, or
  - the original sources?

Here's how I installed it:

  1. Install bootopie-v0.7-pre6-h3900.jffs2 from
     ftp://handhelds.org/familiar/releases/v0.7/install/.

  2. ipkg install gstreamer
       (needed to avoid some .so errors during gpe-apps2 installation)
     ipkg install gpe-apps2

  3. ipkg -force-depends install wswap
       (-force-depends needed because wswap Depends contains nonexistent
       package qt-embedded)

Unfortunately, step 3 caused installation of gtk-menu, which caused lots
of errors during later ipkg invocations.

wswapd got started correctly, and the X button showed up in the Opie
Settings window, but when I clicked it, the only effect was that "swap to
x: x already running!" appeared on the console.
