Hey Brian--

I'd say it's *past* time.  But this seems to come up, oh, about every
year or so, and a big impediment to moving forward seems to be
divergence of what's in the base system from what was done in the vendor
import.  That shouldn't a showstopper (look at the recent gcc-3.1 import
to -CURRENT), but nobody's done it yet.

I'm pretty sure it won't happen for 4.6-RELEASE.  :-)

Bruce.
