Actually, I need to get 1.0.8 in woody. I've been trying to get all the
architectures built by hand, but it's a difficult task. I'm still
missing 4 architectures before I can give the packages to Anthony Towns
so he installs them in Woody.

This bug should be fixed, we can't teach base-config about -w, as it
only calls $EDITOR.

aj, if you're reading this, do you foresee buildd's picking up w-p-u in
the near future?
