	Yeah, but what's particularly funny here is that a good
	chunk of BSD relies | defaults to things-GNU. gcc, g++,
	RCS, ispell, and on and on and on.

	We don't have to *force* the issue.  If John Q. User wants
	the best user-side suites he'll use dpkg (or ports or whatever)
	to install it.   He __already does_: just look at the 
	available ports.  I don't see it as much of an invasion, :-)
