True. There are other benefits to come, but the change is largely
cosmetic on Alpha for now.

Already compiled and uploaded :-) My work machine builds glibc
in under 40 mins, so it wasn't a big issue. As for when I'll be
totally back...ugh. My DSL provider says that it may take at least
10 more days before I can even find out if I can get DSL installed...
then another wait of at least 15 days before I get the equipment.
I'm going to start a war today with them :-)
