 See subject.  Arts does not build, despite an entire afternoon spent
 whacking on it until the C++ weeds became too deep.  The pervasive bugs
 (syntax errors in modern C++, most of them) suggest that arts has not been
 used for a long time. Upon further investigation, I discover that the arts
 maintainer is no longer interested in maintaining it.  (http://www.arts-
 project.org/gen/newsarchive/news_2000.html)

 If piklab depends on Arts, then it, too, is a waste of space.
