Sorry for not communicating better about the second pass. 

The goal was to just try and rebuild everything that _failed_ in the
first pass. We have a lot of packages that failed due to transient
failures like the s390x package cache having issues on tuesday night and
broken binutils, etc.

Normally we would have just resubmitted them, but the eln folks asked us
to do another bump to pick up fixes that were not in the first one. 

The mass rebuild is done now, will get merged soon.
