  I ran it overnight and got errors.  And realized that I should have
started from 3.8-6665-basic, not 3.8-6665-full.  -basic can pass
6675InstallPkgsWarning-dew in half an hour or so.

  And Squeak3.9b-7053.changes (right before the condensing for V39) is
a "proper super .changes" of Squeak3.8-6665-basic.changes (of course
not Squeak3.8-6665-full.changes; that is why I wanted to make my own
.changes file with everything), so I really don't have to do the
update.
