Crack is bad for you, mm'kay...

That particular change was *already* added, despite my objections; bug 
number I don't have on hand, but...

acroread-7.0.8 (restrict=mirror)
wget http://gentoo.osuosl.org/distfiles/libcups.so-i386.bz2

doom3-cdoom-1 (restrict=mirror)
wget http://gentoo.osuosl.org/distfiles/doom3-cdoom.png

Spose worth noting portage also handles it fine, and that if it 
*didn't*, the person demanding changes usually needs to supply the 
patch...
