I've been looking into integrating the lintool functionality into repoman for 
the last couple of days, am beginning to make some headway. I will let you 
know where I've got something worth looking at.

I'm aware that lintool is "broken", but nobody seems to know exactly what is 
wrong with it. This would help enoumously if someone could enlighten me...

Cheers.
