Good idea!

Waitaminnit.  In compliance with policy, mh now uses liblockfile.  But
liblockfile0 is priority optional and mh is priority standard.  I
guess either mh should be demoted to optional (which I can't do
because of the override file) or liblockfile0 should be promoted to
standard.  I say liblockfile0 should be promoted to standard since
it's promoted in the Policy.
