Seems like a good idea. I don't really know who controls that directory,
though; I can ping Konstantin and see what can be done there. Failing
that, I'd be more than happy to put it up on lwn, of course.

I would hope that most people wouldn't have to worry about it, and would
be able to just use what their distribution provides - that's the reason
for the 1.2 compatibility requirement in the first place. I'll make a
point of having a 1.2 installation around that I can test things with;
that should suffice to catch any problems that sneak in.
Thanks,
jon
