OK, I'll try to reestablish it. Look: I can't fix *everyone's* stuff. This was a consequence of ongoing unbounded churn in the x86 tree. If we can find a way of preventing those guys (and everyone else) from trashing everyone else's stuff then we'd have much smoother sailing. Feel free to fix up Martin's patches against mmotm and we're good. Should take you less than an hour.
