Status update: some packages were already fixed, of the remaining ones I've 
fixed what ACLs allowed me to in CVS, but NOT tagged or built anything, and 
filed bugs with patches for the rest.

List of packages built and tagged for F-10 with a patch missing due to the 
above follows.  This was done with quick manual inspection of build logs so 
it's possible that I missed something.  At least for these it should be 
reviewed how bad it would be to ship a build with the affected patch missing 
in F-10, and fixed + built if needed (+ rel-eng contacted to get it to F-10 
at this point I believe):

- alsa-oss
- extrema
- freetennis (CVS ACLs prevented commit, bug with patch filed)
- libnetfilter_conntrack
- libnetfilter_queue (CVS ACLs prevented commit, bug with patch filed)
- libnfnetlink
- speech-dispatcher

Apparently no builds done with the buggy rpm, FTBFS fix commit prevented by 
CVS ACL, bug with patch filed instead:

- bontmia
- cjet
- classpathx-jaf
- dwdiff
- lvm2
- pbm2l7k
- plexus-runtime-builder
- sundials
- sysstat
- time
- weechat
- xournal
