You missed a point of the original. The mac can do all that without
recompiling. You cannot change topaz fonts (not under 1.1, anyways).
You cannot change the requesters themselves automatically at all.

Also, I don't know about Lettice, but Manx has a m.lib math library that
is compiled in; changing it to use the 68881 would mean re-compiling,
not just changing mathieee.library
