As soon as programs in Core require it I'm sure that its going to get
sucked in to Core.

The more important question is... now that gaim is going to use
avahi... what else in Fedora Core requires howl..and can those other
items be made to use avahi as well?
It would be best if howl could be replaced completely in Core with
avahi to avoid duplication of functionality with multuple
implementations.
