Rafael, AFAICT the only outstanding issue with the patches I posted were the last two patches. I haven't had time to re-test my patches without the last patch, but if Chinner was right, and I suspect he was, then the last patch is what implicated the need for the ext patch, which we don't want. So dropping the last two patches I think would be a good starting point. I hope to have time to re-test this week, if you feel compelled to help, you can also help test the patches except for the last two. Then if you want to help further, helping iron out the kinks on the last patch would be much appreciated.
