This morning Julian Rivaud and I fully qualified the new Subversion
dump stream reader against reposurgeon's test suite. This is the same
code Joseph Myers has been using recent versions of to make test 
conversions of the GCC history that appear correct.

We believe reposurgeon is now feature-complete for a full and correct
GCC conversion.  Caveat: The repository is too large for verification
on every single revision to be practical.

We have five remaining minor issues, mostly related to user-generaed
.gitignore files (as opposed to files generarted from svn:ignore
properties) that should not affect the GCC conversion. We expect to
fix these over the next few days, anyway.

We have one remaining RFE from Richard Earnshaw that would
be nice to have, but is not essential. I'll be working on that.

If I were to select a jack-booted group of fascists who are 
perhaps as large a danger to American society as I could pick today,
I would pick BATF [the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms].
