Well, we do carry a patch to fix this, but that generally doesn't get carried to Linus' tree automatically as far as I know. So I guess it's fine for now, but when the merge window opens you'll need to make sure that Linus merges the branches in the correct order so that the build doesn't break in between. I think the typical way to solve this kind of build dependencies between trees is for one tree to provide a stable branch that can be merged into the other. That ensures that each tree can still be built independently. Thierry
