is much slower than on systems supporting connection caching.
* Webapp doesn't build yet.
-* `git annex watch` builds, but does not quite work.
-* `git annex assistant` builds, but has not been tested, and is known
- to not download any files. (transferrer doesn't built yet)
-* watch and assistant cannot be built with cabal. Possibly due to too many
- files overflowing command line length limit at link stage.
- To build a binary with them:
- `ghc --make git-annex.hs -threaded -XPackageImports -DWITH_ASSISTANT=1 -DWITH_WIN32NOTIFY=1`
- (should add all the other flags cabal uses)

+ for write as they're being added (no lsof)
+* Startup scan neglects to send add events for all files in the repo,
+ so pre-existing files are not added by watch/assistant. (Should be easily
+ fixed.)
+* `git annex assistant` has not been tested, is probably quite incomplete.
