So that looks like most of GFD 024 and we don't need that for naming
extensions. This is a normative reference so ggf-naming-extensions
would have to become standards track right? An alternative would be
to split off the gss_buffer_set_t stuff into a separate draft and 
reference that from both drafts.

I'd prefer the latter quite frankly. I don't think its a lot of work
and I can volunteer but I think I want to hear from Doug and Von...
