i don't think you're being entirely fair here

technically the sourceware accounts apply to all sourceware projects, not just 
glibc.  so those apply to gdb, binutils, glibc, newlib, etc...

i'm also pretty sure that your git/cvs/whatever, while you're using the same 
account name, are not using the same credentials.  you had to go into the 
savannah site and add your ssh keys.  which is also how sourceware does it.

but it would be nice if the bugzilla/patchwork/wiki account dbs were merged.
