Might be nice if we had an internal trouble ticket system for things like
this, TODOs that are high priority, and pending MFCs.  I got the impression
NetBSD does something like this for branch pullups that are needed?
Then there's a clearer qudit trail, and it's easier to find out if things
have "not been honoured".  And to keep other sorts of things from falling
behind.

Thanx,
juli.
