Well, if this isn't working properly, I'll just make a g-d-s release
against 2.6.8 with at least that single patch in it so that users can
work properly.

If you note on lkml a number of people are saying they will be keeping a
-postX release tree just to keep the breakage at a minimum for now.

Give me a day to get it out, there's a bunch of patches that need to be
rediffed...
