Once the feature hit the mainline, distro people could start to use in the debug kernel variant, and it is a shame to only find out it is broken. Anyway, I’ll try to edge out those corner cases.

But just like most of the rest of use, myself included, you won't always have the power to make people actually pay attention to what you say. ;-) Thanx, Paul
