Well, it's opportunity costs, mainly.  The code in question will need a
bit of tweaking before it works here, and once it's part of the
codebase, it will take time to maintain.

Also, it's not everything you need to migrate from Arch.  You need to be
able to apply an Arch full tree in order to get started, and I don't
have that.  So it might require substantial new code.

There are other things I could be doing, like porting Fai's annotate
functionality to bzr.
