obAdministrivia: I'm not exactly a fan of the 'default reply to poster' 
mailing list setup, but that's what the SL list is.  I hit reply-all and 
trim the recipients whenever replying to the list (Thunderbird's 'reply 
to list' function doesn't seem to work with the SL lists).

I have to wonder if the 'Software Collections' framework could work for 
glibc.  Otherwise your solution should work ok, even though it is more 
than a bit of a kluge.  But it is glibc we're talking about, the second 
most core part of the system.
