Yes, it was built against m4 and will run against m4.  That's supposed
to publish the specific downloads each build is built against.  I can
add a compatible section like WTP does.

It will run against M5 as well, and that's what people should be using
for development.

It's possible that I could simply remove the e4.master zip ... and
remove the size argument (which isn't being calculated ATM, simply set
to 32 MB and is very confusing).
