That is, in the preamble he did this to find the stream:

currentContext _ thisContext.
[currentContext home receiver class =3D=3D StandardFileStream] whileFalse=
:=20
[currentContext _ currentContext sender].
thisFileStream _ currentContext home receiver.
thisFileStream position: 3021.

I still need to provide this to the preamble and postscript code, if I=20
want change-set compatibility.

I think I'll go ahead and use a global, perhaps a global stack if I=20
need nested installs like this (but I doubt that'd be necessary, as=20
you could put everything you need in one zip).
