Elsewhere on the Internets, I came across a guy trading copies of the Bundle for items in Team Fortress 2, at the rather poor rate of buying them for 50c a time.

Blah. Kinda sucks.
If I'm able, what I could do is not activate the games I already own on Steam, then give away the keycodes to someone who doesn't already have them.
So if this is possible...who wants Braid and Machinarium?
As far as I know it's only been done with either valves own packs or multiple-pack games, but they never do gifting on any big-pack.
Still, is it such a horror with a pack of games that can be bought at any price you want?
If you really want to gift away the games you already had on steam, buy people a copy of the humble pack?

I've seen people go "it's too hard to buy the humble pack, buying a 100 copies at $0.01 was a pain.

Yep, went to the facepunch forums and checked out their thread on the subject, apparently someone bought a ton of copies of the pack and gifted them away in another thread, I guess he wanted to spread the Christmas spirit (in the worst possible way ever), and a ton of other people were like chicks in a nest screaming out with their mouths open for someone to feed them with a pack.
Always assume humans are greedy bastards by default. When the official stats are released again we'll see it again, a ton of people in the $0.01 range.
Still, fuck ton of good people out there, only takes a single $10 guy to nullify a thousand of those cheap packs, bless you guys, you're the ones who makes this possible.

Hahaha that comic! :D

That comic either shows a horrified guy with some kind of malformed growth under his lower lip; or a smiling guy with a huge moustache.

You mean a chin?

That would dramatically increase the extent of his deformities, but sure, I guess that's another alternative. Hell, maybe it's his nose -- he doesn't seem to have one anywhere else.
edit: why yes. I do believe it's his nose:
