[plt-scheme] Installing Datalog

Yes, I've restarted DrScheme several times since installing datalog.

My laptop went into standby in the middle of the first time I
installed it, so I'm wondering if the interruption left it in a state
where the language is in the cache, but it didn't complete the change
to the language menu.  That's why I uninstalled and reinstalled
Scheme.  But it didn't make a difference.  (Does the cache persist
between uninstalling and reinstalling?  If so, is there a way to
explicitly flush the planet cache?)
