We're being spammed again - different user name, but exactly the same
filenames.  I didn't bother looking at them.  The page he attached
these is still the same (rutud), which is still marked as deleted.

I think it's much easier to delete these files using a shell, than
using the Wiki interface.

Also, there seems to be a procedure to disable user accounts (using
the "moin" command).

I'd like to be able to do both, but that requires extra priviledges.
Right now, my only access to sourceware.org is through gdbadmin.
