It was stated in the Change that was accepted for this rebuild. If you give me a list of packages, in the rel-eng side tag ticket is fine, I can run the rel-eng mass rebuild script against it and complete the rest before they're tagged in, I'd sooner spend a little time on that than have mass breakage for weeks in rawhide.

In theory that fine, in practice is doesn't really work out.
