zvt is broken ATM because we're building from a branch; the agreement to
build from the branch presumed that the brancher would attempt to fix
the bugs revealed by snapshots testing. Since that has not occurred, it
seems likely we'll stop building from that branch soon.

The goal is not to be in line with Red Hat; it's with being in line with
GNOME's releases, which are zvt based and will be for the near future.
