Thank you so much for your work! I went through the patches and they
look fine to me, I didn't find anything obviously wrong. Now I'm doing
more tests with both new & legacy configs.

And again, since this is quite a invasive update, I'd like to let it sit
in the list for longer time for broader review. Any comments/ideas are
appreciated!

Thanks,
Eryu
