Well, at the moment there are some 80+ ports affected, and the GNOME 1.x
updates are definitely slowing down.  It's trivial for me to keep the
patchset up to date as and when ports are upgraded, but at some point, we'll
have to pull the trigger.  As to whether that's just before 5.0-DP1, or just
before 4.6-REL is the question.
