Will you do security support and regular uploads for it too? Or just a
one shot upload? Will you stand against ftp-masters whish to remove
it?

If so then do join the ia32-libs team on alioth and make an
upload. I'm sure Bdale and Frederick have nothing against it. But then
you need to do the work too, not just the talk.
