i don't think you can avoid still supporting 3.80 *but* does that mean
supporting early *broken* versions of 3.80? or patched and properly
working, later versions? there's a big difference there as i'm sure
you can appreciate.
as it stands, the current version on fedora core 5 is make-3.80-10,
for which there is a *lengthy* changelog of bugfixes since the
original release of 3.80. so what's the policy?
