Comment(by wad):

 In debugging here at twine, I noticed some errors in that OFW code.
 Specifically, there is an extraneous "5" before smb-data-gpio# in both
 set-compass-slave and set-sensor-slave.   sensor! should call smb-byte!
 not smb-byte@

 But even with these fixes, I'm unable to communicate with the compass.
 The accelerometer in the same package works OK, but when I try to address
 the compass, no ACK is received.  I'll try soldering another compass down,
 perhaps the first one was damaged in mounting.
