The solution I'd like best, I think, is one with separate projects
that makes it easy to manually or automatically sync revisions from
the shared directories. This may be nothing more than some clever
push hooks, for instance to reject manual changes to bfd/ being pushed
to the central gdb repository and to automatically propogate changes
to bfd/ from binutils. Anyone feeling inspired enough to build a
proof-of-concept?
