The adjtimex bug has been assigned to libc6 already, with a note that
its now severity serious as it breaks d-i. I'm proposing to do binary
NMUs for alpha, ia64 busybox-cvs : hence I'm CC'ing all the uploaders
for busybox CVS (its maintainer is set to debian-boot).

oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that
