Yes, you are of course welcome to include it (and oops, forgot
pddplink was an external).  If you want, you can just "svn mv" it from
my dir to the list-abs home (that would preserve its history in SVN).

I figured as much regarding initbang (though I still think it should
be a part of vanilla anyway), but what are your suspicions about
dynamic patching/namecanvas?  Or perhaps, what would you prefer as a
solution?  Anyhow, no worries, it will have a safe and happy home in
senderfruit/core (or maybe senderfruit/list-abs-too-hot-for-tv).
