Great! Many thanks... Actually, impressive work.

I'm trying to integrate/build it into my Fedora based rt packages for Planet CCRMA. Warning: I'm doing this on top of the 2.6.34.8-68 fc13 koji build, so rt is patched on top of the additional Fedora patches for that build (with a few trivial tweaks to patch cleanly). So I don't know if the following issues are due to that - I will investigate:

I found a couple of extra argument cases for __netif_tx_lock:
