Comment(by olly):

 I don't think indexing the macros themselves is useful, but my
 understanding is that these aren't just files full of macros, but macro-
 enabled documents - i.e. documents with macros which the file extension
 says it is OK to run (quite a scary concept that the extension or mime-
 type should be trusted to say that, but that seems to be what these are).

 But perhaps I've misunderstood - I didn't find any actual MS documentation
 of these aside from the lists of mime type mappings.  I haven't added
 support for them for now, but it is easy to do so.

 I've merged the other Office 2007 changes (and refactored a little to
 reduce the code repetition).  You'd missed updating the list of mime-types
 in the docs, but I've addressed that.

 And the sample files seems to index correctly, so it all looks good.

 So I'm ready to commit, but what copyright notice should I add for your
 changes?  (I don't know if the copyright is owned by you, or an employer
 or similar).
