Matter of fact, there's another problem (path_mount() that needs to be moved from fs/internal.h for that) and IMO this is simply not worth bothering with. I don't see any benefits in the last commit in there; the next-to-last one has some point, and it's not hard to fix, but since it clearly got no testing whatsoever... Christoph, if you want it back, resend it later, *after* having tested it. qemu-system-alpha works well enough to boot the last released debian/alpha. For now I'm dropping the last two commits from that branch.
