Sweet. Perhaps it should be grafted on master first, then merge it and
ungraft on core-updates? Either approach will cause conflicts if there
are further updates to libtiff before next core-updates merge, so not
sure which is better.

Another approach could be to have special "ungraft" branches for each of
these widely used high-severity libraries, that are continously merged
once Hydra has built it all.

Not sure how many days it takes to build ~1600 packages for all
supported archs, probably better to merge "ungrafts" to staging.

Just throwing some ideas out. LGTM anyway!
