IIUC, this is needed to create the Savannah account, right?

Indeed, they're fundamentally wrong (although they are "popular" because
they solve a difficult problem).

I suggest you go the Savannah, then select "Get support" and in there
select "Support => Submit" to create a ticket where you can ask them to
create an account for you.
That will also give you an opportunity to complain about the use of
captchas to people slightly closer to those who make the choice.
