And, not to omit the obvious, Apple should reconsider whether they
need to do a daily tag at all. The daily tag was clearly useful for
CVS. For SVN it should suffice to write down a single revision
number. Is there any reason to continue the daily tag?

I would vote for simply ditching the old-gcc libc, gcc-2_8_1, make,
gnumach, and hurd tags. If I had thought about it, I would have had
the gccmerge process discard them.
