Yes, it makes it obvious that woody's not even remotely releasable at the
moment.
Other problems of some note are:
* libc6 on sparc doesn't build libncurses correctly
* perl 5.6 is broken, the latest debconf depends on perl 5.6,
and lots of packages in unstable need a later version of
debconf than what's in woody/potato; console-{data,tools}
in woody is somewhat broken until this is fixed thanks to bad
dependencies
Cheers,
