+1. At some point pacman is going to need a glibc update to work and not being able to install glibc because it's a xz is an issue. We should probably add a versioned glibc to pacman's depends so someone doesn't end up upgrading pacman and not being able to run it because glibc didn't get updated as well.

Newer glibc needs a newer kernel quite often, so you end up having half of core as non-xz (a rule which has already been violated right now). Even the 2009.08 image should have xz support already (with a bug that fails to extract xz -9 packages but not xz -6 packages), so we should be okay, mostly.
