In case no one steps up: Should we remove it from extras/devel before we
branch for FE5? Sound like a good idea if it also segfaults in FC5. 

Somebody probably should look at the other orphans in extras/devel and
check if there are other packages that are heavily broken. Removing
those is probably better then leaving them around for longer. 

I'm still for the "remove *all* orphans from the repo before branching
FE5 if there is nothing that depends on them" solution...
