I didn't say you did.  However, while saying "I understand your
frustration", you simply ignored this question, which I would say was
fairly important in the context, and asked me to write another version
of the patch against your tree.  My takeaway from this is that you
attach a higher priority to seeing that your tree isn't broken, than
to seeing that these bugs get fixed.

Cheers,

Michael
