RedHat are actually doing what I was planning to do which is produce one
package for each package upstream releases (there are three).  I can't
see any reason to keep the merged source package since it's more work to
maintain it due to having to munge the upstream tarballs together.

I would expect anything that goes though new to be rejected - the issues
apply to the existing package as well but since that doesn't need to be
acked by ftpmaster there's no need for them to explicitly say it's OK.
