Thanks. It seems that we have a bit of hashing out the approaches
that is necessary between Michael's and this one. I'll refrain from
picking this up for today (even though I would read it through as
time permits). It might turn out to be necessary to drop those five
early patches from my tree when this series gets rerolled to take
input from the alternative Michael's working on, but that droppage
does not have to happen today.
