Um... HELLO???  Hamm isn't frozen yet!  AND...  I FIXED the bug in
Zircon already (which wasn't really release-critical and caused by a
bug in the debmake/devscripts stuff).  I just hadn't yet gotten the
close message out to bugs.debian.org.  I had just barely been able to
upload the thing to master due to the broken Incoming there.  I had
thought I was OK, figuring that I still had a day of time left.  Heh.
Guess not.  Thanks for the warning.

Perhaps next time, instead of deleting packages that work fine, you
ought to wait until the announced freeze time and THEN delete them.
BTW, zircon was never once listed in your summaries of "bugs that must 
be fixed before release".

This really is unacceptable.  Zircon certainly isn't a package that
vital to the operation of the system, but things such as nfsroot,
etc. can be vital to people's situation and the removal of them could
result in taking their network down...
