Good thing there was never any such intention, otherwise you would be
offended! I'm sorry uffi-compat is not useful for you, I guess...

uffi.asd was added by popular demand. (Or maybe it was just *one*
user, I don't recall.) I'd be glad to rename it, but as I've mentioned
in a previous email, I'm worried that it'd do more harm than good.
Suggestions on how to solve the problem are most welcome.
