I've read that it can be done, but not how. The problem is that ATL
doesn't appear in the headless version of the core OS, so for
platforms based on a headless device, ATL doesn't appear in the
catalog.

My workaround was to hack iabase.cec, adding 'CoreOS("HLBASE")' to the
ATL build method. I then had to update the catalog via File->Manage
Catalog Features. Remove iabase.cec from the list then import it and
refresh. ATL appeared under "Applications and Services Development" at
the top of the catalog.

Anyone got a cleaner method that works ?
