OK. Having looked up the missing patch on gmane, I'd like to know
whether or not there is a followup plan to fix up utilities like
'rpcdebug'? Apparently this patch doesn't remove the existing sunrpc
sysctl interface, but does circumvent it. The result is that while
rpcdebug will happily continue to run, it just won't work any more...
