As usual, as soon as I finally resort to asking, I find the answer
myself.

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/
android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">

<LinearLayout
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:gravity="bottom"
        >

Seems to do the trick.
