Hey, that's fine.  The core is the most important part, anyway.  I
hadn't really thought about how ridiculous it would be to commit
changes to ~40 packages at once.  This is totally fine.  I'm willing
to sniff out some bugs or build problems for myself along the way.  I
just want to build as much as I can in one pass.  And the core
packages are the biggies.  Having a misplaced switch in gedit or
something is something I can handle.  Knowing that I can probably make
it thru nautilus without significant problems is much better.
