Several things:

 o Your mailer garbles patches, so I couldn't apply it anymore.
 o If the second request_region your patches will abort initialization
   leaving the first one region allocated.
 o The potencial abort happens in a loop so if we abort anytime other than
   during the first iteration the resources will stay allocated and the
   driver won't drive instances found earlier.

Thanks,

  Ralf
