Note that this will imply soon a good bounce of NMUs for experimental.
If your packages depends directly or indirectly on Tcl/Tk or Expect,
- just to cite major packages - you have to expect some third-parties
strange and suspect activities :-) in experimental and possibly 
bug reportings.

Note that plans imply dropping multi-thread support for 8.4 and
moving all stalling packages to use 8.4, as minimum requirement
or die.

Be warned ;-)
