  Not even a clone, it's the original code that was released by EA and ported for the OLPC project

  It compiles and runs! You need to set the SIMHOME environment variable to point at the root of the repo. It also generates a ton of warnings on a modern compiler, but in the end it pops out a running executable. As an added bonus it runs perfectly well over the network, as a good X app should. You don't need a fast or low latency connection, it runs perfectly well over even mediocre connectivity.
