Actually, I was trying to do exactly what you suggest.
Downloaded the branch, it failed to compile, due to incompatibilities with recent gtk or something. So, I tried merge with the current trunk, and manually edit trouble spots.. This was going great, but I'm stuck on: src/sp-symmetry-basetile.cpp
I see there's an old discussion thread from March about C++ification.. I'll have to read through that.. C based object oriented code gives me a headache, perhaps that thread's the aspirin, or at least points to where the pharmacy is!

Is anyone out there secretly working on the symmetry-tool branch?
I've tried to compile recently, but it seems to be suffering some bit rot. I'm working through errors, but for the moment I'm stumped on what seems to be a lot of c style object code from the general src breaking compilation. Any hints?
Hey Tom,
Thanks for looking into the branch.
If it's too old, the best approach might be to take the original commit delta and manually merge it into trunk one bit at a time.
See if you can get it up and running and if not work on that one small part until it's working again.
Martin,
