It's the same process used by everyone else for large mass
rebuilds/rebases. You request a sidetag from rel-eng, built it with a
different target and then once you're done rel-eng tags it in so
there's no breakage.

Do it the above way so there's no days of breakage for those who wish
to actually use rawhide. All other toolchain groups and large package
groups use this method. It's expected.
This isn't immediately useful, but this seems as good a place to insert
it as any: At the rel-eng FAD, Dennis put forth the idea of
automatically detecting this kind of breakage and pulling it into an
automatically-created side tag, which perhaps could even be merged
_back_ automatically when the breakage is fixed.
