The case of two 1394 driver stacks isn't fully comparable.  I supported 
the addition of the second stack with the intent to replace the existing 
one after a transition period, and in the hope that the ratio of 
available maintainer manpower : size and complexity of the codebase 
would improve considerably.  Because that was/is the single fundamental 
problem in Linux 1394 driver land.

(Besides, how well is infrastructure like the suspend--resume framework 
comparable to drivers?)
