Thorsten,

I would have CCd regressions with my previous postings if I had known the 
address. The only place I had seen reference to it was on LKML where the address 
is carefully obscured.

If I have not heard from the developers regarding this issue by Friday, I will 
be submitting a request for reversion of the patch in question.
