A new set of dbfawk files specific for these shapefiles will have to be
written.  As the shapefiles are only a day old, nobody's gotten around to
doing that yet.

You could start from the file "tgr2shp.dbfawk" and "tgr2shppoly.dbfawk" and
adapt them to the new shapefiles if you care to try it out.  I was planning to
do just that eventually, but am too busy to do it any time this week.
