I suspect those patches {we,a}re too late to the party. I mean really,
we are talking about issues upgrading from n-2 to n-1. The number of
people that will still be left doing that upgrade is probably pretty
minimal.

Is there really any harm in leaving them in proposed just in case
somebody comes to the party even later than those patches? Really,
unless a package gets either positive or negative feedback, why not just
leave it in proposed indefinitely? What's the hurry to remove them?
