I see. Right. I'll take a look.

Fedora 8 gets substantial new stuff ? OK, well in that case if that's
likely to happen quickly then that's good.

Yes. The Debian packages have an arrangement for doing this but they
achieve it with a very invasive (and time-consuming to maintain) set
of changes to the upstream Makefiles. We're not going to get that
feature upstream in in 3.2 now, although I'll definitely be pushing it
later (although probably not based exactly on the Debian patchset).
