Coordination with all the sites that mirror GNATS to tell them that the
database and index formats change.  This is why I never did it several
years back when I first looked at it.  (We have no idea who actually
mirrors it for local use, but it's non-zero.)

portsmon runs gnats4 using a shim so it's not a factor.

IMHO any time spent working on GNATS internals is not time well spent.
It's a dead project upstream in any case.
