I'll work on this at some point (first I have to get my RH 6.2 system
to a state where I can build/install GC 1.6). Indeed, I'm fairly
certain that the RPC backend hasn't been useful for a while, because
it does not store things like pricedb, etc.
The other problem with RPC is that the GLIBC team screwed me over by
disabling some functionality. I've sent in a bug report to them, but
who knows if/when it will actually get fixed.
Besides, who is actually _using_ the RPC Backend? ;)
