Fair point, I simply looked at the dist tag when making that list,
instead of looking at the decendents of F*FTBFS which captures the
"when" better.  Doesn't change that I'd like to seem them all fixed if
possible (and several have been since I posted the list), or dropped if
impossible (and a few have been blocked by their owners now as being
dead upstream, unfixable, and/or obsoleted).

Thanks,
Matt
