From looking at the e-mail record, you said that the second one fixed the rtorrent corruption --- but looking at this patch and its description, it looks like this one should perhaps get pushed to Linus ASAP as well. Do you remember if both patches were needed to fix the rtorrent corruption problem, or only the second one?
