Just another reminder -- this is cutting it very close now.

I repeat, that this is a feature that worked in previous kernels but
is broken in 2.6.31.

I feel very concerned, considering that I posted a regression fix over
six weeks ago and it still has not made it into Linus' kernel tree.

I understand that you are a busy man -- Would it be easier for you if
I sent this patch to Linus, myself?

Please advise.

Thank you for your time.

Regards,

Michael Krufky
