Well, the state is well determined - nothing is installed ;) I was kind of
hoping kernel support would be enough but apparently the testsuite needs
some userspace installed & configured as well.

Thanks!

Actually, I haven't heard this for quite a long time :) and I myself
prefer attached patches (with text/plain attachment type) when they are
in a reply to another email - they are easier to extract and at least my
mail client automatically inlines them when I hit reply... Arguably the
best of both worlds is to use git-send-email with properly set threading
but I tend to forget about that option.
