New images up with fixes

[Brian Rice]

New alpha images are up with various fixes as I found them in  
surrounding libraries.

I have created a new parser for filenames which is much more generic  
and robust (and satisfies every test I've thrown at it - tests/ 
file.slate includes some examples now), but currently the bootstrap  
which includes these is broken, so I'll have to continue to work on  
it to get it integrated and delivered. Hopefully this will be soon.

In the meantime, my initial patch is in the main repository but not  
bootstrapped in, of course. If you read it carefully, you will see  
that it can be loaded into a live image and you can try it and it  
should work, although more files than just lib/file.slate are  
modified (eg the pre-bootstrap and directory.slate), so don't expect  
a trivial load-and-go - just FYI.
