And "We want it in RHEL" isn't a good enough answer. It's been FIVE years that we carried that thing without it getting upstream. What benefit is there in continuing to carry this thing at all ? Utrace has been an absolute disaster from a merging standpoint. Even Xen didn't take this long to get upstream.
