Ok, I've implemented IKBD set-clock now, so Zombi is working now. I
had to save a new variable to the memory snapshots, so they are
incompatible with 1.6.0 now. Anyway, looking at the release notes,
there are really a lot of changes already, ... Nicolas, did you maybe
also consider to name the next release 1.7.0 already instead of 1.6.2?
