I had to turn off that jobset shortly after activating it because the
‘glibc’ graft landed and it would have caused massive rebuilds without a
clear way to get things merged (in fact, the glibc change is not
“ungraftable” in the trivial way because it uses ‘git-fetch’, which
would cause circular dependencies on old daemons).
