Ok, I should have all the issues you found fixed. They're only compile
tested but they should be correct - tomorrow I'll pull them into the dev
branch and test them.

But I got that and the most recent stable code pushed to the public
repository. I got rid of the 2.6.34 branch, the bcache branch is now
based off 3.1.

You got it up and running? How's it working?
