Aha I see what happened. I fixed it and made sure the
changes build and work, but didn't commit and pushed from
a dirty tree.

vhost wants to use these changes but these patches are still
work in progress. Since the changes are all over the
tree I thought looking at how they interact with
everyone's work at an early stage is a good idea.
Of course breaking builds for everyone is not acceptable,
I'm very sorry about that.
I'll make double sure by tree is clean before push next time,
will also look at whether git push can check this automatically.
