Thanks, but I don't think that's necessary. I doubt many packagers
would merge stuff over the holidays, so there wouldn't be much
difference between that and just pushing directly.

I want to use PRs for the few packages that are more complex
(listed in my original e-mail, e.g. kernel and pyqt4), but that's
just ~10 packages, so that can be done by hand.
