I don't think we need measures quite as drastic as this.  A hotfix for
emacs-libgit was pushed to master, which causes builds to succeed again
(see e.g. [1]).  Since we're talking about free software here, it would
be more constructive to work on a proper patch – if upstream won't take
it, one can always fork it.

I don't see any benefits in this approach, do you?
