My old 386 used to work with older versions of Debian. It doesn't work now with modern versions of the kernel. It was broken. Deliberately.

Debian doesn't need patches. We have the Woody source we can compile.

We need a GR to prevent the proponents of recent versions of the kernel from deliberately breaking things again.

Debian doesn't need patches. We have the Bo source we can recompile.

We just need a GR to prevent glibc proponents from deliberately breaking things again.
