9a8abab722 require setuptools >= 0.6c6 on cygwin, and >= 0.6a9 on other platforms
Earlier I tried 0.6a9 (which comes in .deb format on Dapper) and something
didn't work, so I raised it to 0.6c3.  However, I didn't make a note of what
failed, and so now I'm hoping that what failed was cygwin-specific.  Anyway,
everyone look out for setuptools compatibility problems on the your favorite
platform (and I'll check the buildslaves), and we'll raise the required version
as little as possible and only on the problematic platform.

d41e944beb re-re-factored the download and install instructions
Now the instructions about how to download debian packages live on a separate
page of the wiki instead of on the front page or in the README.  The README is
only about building from source.  The front page contains pointers to those two
other pages (the debiandownloadpage and the README).

3b9aab4592 make big distinction between downloading precompiled packages and building yourself
Both of my two test subjects here stumbled on this by thinking that building on debian was related to building debian packages was related to downloading precompiled packages.

d19d1058e0 extirpate all references the "queen" and "metatracker"
This is a potentially disruptive and potentially ugly change to the code base,
because I renamed the object that serves in both roles from "Queen" to
"IntroducerAndVdrive", which is a bit of an ugly name.

However, I think that clarity is important enough in this release to make this
change.  All unit tests pass.  I'm now darcs recording this patch in order to
pull it to other machines for more testing.
