The three modules name their base rather than pinning a copy of it

Each named a digest produced inside a lab that no longer exists, so none of them
could be built anywhere else. They say which module they stand on now, and there
is deliberately no default — a build nobody told stops at the declaration rather
than at a reference that resolves to nothing.
