Yeah -- that way at least we get the new infrastructure there.

We may need to give other trees a branch with the commits that change
the mapping, so that they can write new code that does not break when
we all merge.

Or perhaps we may just simplify and do a final remapping right after a
merge window as a special case even if it is not a pure fix -- that
would be easier to successfully do at once.

Either that or we do something fancier to avoid a flag day, but
hopefully we will not need it.

Thanks!

Cheers,
