I know... I'm postponing this because of the libc6 thing (it's a 50+ minute
compile plus the upload)... we are not going to ship Slink with the current
glibc, are we? Binaries compiled with Debian don't run on other Linuxes, and
not even in hamm systems because of this __register_frame_info thing. If a
new libc6 is uploaded, then many (*a lot*) of packages would have to be
reuploaded unless I'm missing something important here... I don't actually
have a problem with compiling this twice; I have a problem with uploading
this twice to frozen.

OTOH, I don't expect any trouble compiling with mesa3g (I have recompiled
quite a few things I develop here that use Mesa and I haven't encountered
any trouble, plus Stephane actually develops MLC using Mesa 3 not 2)
