This is the very first release in their release cycle... I usually wait
until the second to build for rawhide just to give things a little more
time to shake out.  Also, the schedule is still up in the air, so I'm
unsure that this will actually be able to make it until the schedule is
finalized (although at this point, it seems fairly certain).

I'm not planning on updating this.  LILO is deprecated and heavily
patched.  If someone else does the legwork, I'll look at it, but keeping
compatibility with the legacy version is the primary concern here.

Not that important with 2.6 since you use lvm2.  There was a reason
Stephen didn't want to do this update, but I can't for the life of me
remember what it was.

This probably changes the ABI again -- we try to minimize the number of
OpenSSL ABI shifts we do since they're kind of painful.

Need to look at the diff, our version of parted is fairly heavily
patched, but should be a fairly simple migration.

Cheers,
