Thank you for taking care of that so quickly.  I've tested it and it 
shows that I'm within 0.5% of where I was before.  this is well within 
the margin of error for my test.

On another (completely cosmetic)  note, ips.c is spitting out warnings 
because of the IPS_*LOCK_RESTORE macros which don't use the flags 
argument in 2.5.  If you're sending an update to Linus, could you 
include something like what I've attached to get rid of them?
