Hi Justin.  Great to get started on this.  We need to do things carefully,
however.

1) Installing an old version of fink's passwd package under 10.3 will wipe
the users on your system.  We have to be absolutely certain that users
have an updated passwd package in their tree under 10.3.

2) Because of the gcc ABI change, we need to make sure that everything with
C++ code is recompiled with gcc 3.3.  Last year's strategy of a separate
10.2 tree and higher version numbers for everything in it (compared with
10.1) was one way to do that.  Do we want to do the same thing again?
Or something different?

Both of these will involve changes to bootstrap.pl and/or postinstall.pl .
But we should discuss them first, and decide how we want to proceed.
