Urk, even though Dave says he wasn't picking on me, 2/3 of those
mentioned were mine.  Oops.  Sorry.  :)  One of them was from the
upstream patch queue, the other was just whatever name popped into my
head when I imported it into a quilt stack.

As an aside - but maybe relevant - how much description / lineage /
whatever should go into the spec file comments vs. into the TODO file?
