I met up with bikemore this evening and came away with a bunch of goodies. For building wheels, a pair of 32h Mavic MA40 rims, a pair of 32h Campy Record hubs, and spokes. It was a very good trip into Boston.
Plus, it was a fun visit. He's a great guy who just happens to have way too many bike parts in his basement!
Now I have much work to do! Where'd I put my spoke wrench?

105 has a BCD of 130mm.
It won't do compact double duty. You'll need a BCD of 110.
