Didn't notice this earlier -- I built Imprudence on mac last autumn or
so, that might still be the previous release. Made it as happened to be
on a mac and heard people complain that such a build was missing. Was
easy.

If no one else is building Imprudence on Macs and it's still needed I
can try if just updating to current on my mac and building gives a good
result.
