Joerg,

Where do we stand on this series?  You had a concern that the heuristic
used in patch 1/ could be dangerous.  The suggestion for detecting the
issue was actually from Bjorn who replied with his rationale.  Do you
want to go in the direction of a fixed whitelist or do you agree that
even if the heuristic breaks it provides better behavior than what we
have now?  Thanks,

Alex
