Apparently not, so I went ahead and merged!

Please email address@hidden if you notice anything wrong.

For the record, there are many novelties: glibc 2.29, the default
compiler is now GCC 7 (was 5.5), there’s the new “reduced binary seed
bootstrap”, and tons of other updates and improvements.

Thanks to everyone who’s been working on this!
