Don't worry, I make the same kind of reasoning, so fork-not-clone will be 
reverted for now, until it's made to work on newer systems... and TT mode and 
SKAS0 mode are not incompatible, so SKAS0 will not be dropped so early (for 
now I consider 2.6.14 early, yes).

There were some problems about TT mode which appeared unsolvable on newer 
distros, and that was a reason to drop TT mode, but I just solved them, so 
there's no hurry in dropping it.
