More general glue questions was Glue for cracked rib?

[Farrell]

Well, cold or hot hide glue with proper surface preparation and clamping 
provides a joint that is significantly stronger than the wood itself. How 
strong do you think your need this joint?

Not that I'm suggesting hide glue is the only option....
