It looks like the version in the archive is *very* old (I mean, "new"
xmille is still old, but there is a more modern port that uses Xt at
least). I've got the newer version working, even on 64-bit systems, and
have applied suitable copyright messages.

This package includes a bunch of games using a shared widget library,
including a raft of solitaire, another (not terribly good) reversi
implementation and even a version of dominoes. Having this build only
xmille would be fairly easy. If that seems like a reasonable way
forward, I'll go ahead and create a release of that package.
