Tangentially-related: do we officially support bleeding-edge OS builds?
For example, current rawhide has a new-enough gcc that gives some
(possibly-useful) new warnings (-Werror=format-truncation) that fire
when formatting what can be easily proven to be larger than a
fixed-width buffer will hold.  If rawhide is not a current target, then
I don't need to spend any time on this (yet); but if rawhide builds ARE
supported, then we want this patched before 2.9:
