Comment:

 Absolutely. Closing this ticket just closed half of all of them! The other
 Zephyr bug is a general build failure on GNU HURD that happens to be in
 Zepyhr's code.

 There's also a patch to Zephyr that I've asked to be done in a more
 generic way.

 Zephyr has never really had a maintainer; it's just existed without issue
 and every once in a while  a huge cool patch for it comes out of the
 woodwork. It seems that people are using Zephyr, and not having problems
 with it.

 *Most* of our prpls are not very much *more* maintained than Zepyhr and
 have plenty more problems. We should focus on those.
