+* Check on different platforms, particularly windows and PPC.  I have wine

+  custom script thus::

+    make sdist-tests
+
+  For the PPC I have to log into an old Mac G5 in Berkeley.  It doesn't have a
+  fixed IP even, but here's an example::
+
+    ssh 128.32.52.219
+    cd dev_trees/nibabel
+    git co main-master
