This is quite a bit bigger than something I would generally like to push
along for -rc4 timing. Patches 1, 2, and 4 all technically qualify as
fixes, so those are workable. 3/4 on the other hand looks like a feature
enhancement that you're either dependent on for your new platform or a
cleanup to move off of the previous hardcoding (in either case not really
-rc4 material).

On the other hand, if you don't require any of these for -rc4 then I can
just apply the whole batch aimed at the next merge window.
