Thanks to you.

I have an updated version of those patches - incorporated Viro suggestions and 
some of the other fixes he requested (not everything). I've exported 
everything and attached the thing.

When you test that, a short 3-liners "test it this way" is appreciated.

Ah, while at it, if you can find a file bigger than 4k to test?

The existing code to handle that was poorlessly broken and had no chance of 
working, patches fix that.

Btw, can you use quilt? Not that

while read i; do
	patch -p1 < patches/$i
done < patches/series

isn't supposed to work (totally untested), together with "man tac" for 
unapplying.

But quilt is more powerful and easier to use. Not that I care myself.
