I tried, but the most appropriate squashes were things like patch 18 and
19 squashed into patch 3, and some other similar jumping around of
patches. The number of conflicts that created in both the original
squash and the follow on patches was perverse. So, since the original
20 patches as I submitted previously are what has gone through our QA, I
left them as they were. If I fixed them up and squashed them, and if
some overlooked fixup failure snuck in there, it would invalidate all of
that testing.
