Thanks for the offer, Jordan.  I think I'll lurk on bugs for a bit to get
a sense of what's going on and then make a decision on how far I want to
involve myself. 

I was thinking more along the lines of following up on or closing out of
date or should-have-landed-in-questions PRs just to keep the level of open
PRs down. Administrivia type stuff.  Take a look at the www gnats listings
for various categories (misc comes to mind) and you'll see what I mean,
there's several PRs that are date- or version-specific that probably don't
apply anymore or were `solved' in the audit log but were never officially
closed.  misc/2785 is such a target.
