Ping -- I don't "insist" on getting this patch in, but I'd like to see a
clear decision about it. Leaving it hanging is terrible.

Please follow up with a clear ACK, or a clear NAK, or advice for
improving the patch. (Again, I don't mind if it gets nacked, but I'd
like to see it explicitly.)

(I think I responded to Alex's earlier points acceptably; IOW the ball
shouldn't be in my court ATM.)

Thanks
Laszlo
