Andrew reverted some stuff to fix his PII (which I broke BTW it wasn't a problem in your original patches) but he didn't revert everything only starting from the bisected patch.

Thanks. It's not that urgent because the merge will need a few days at least. Also I must admit I haven't figured out yet if yours or Rusty's patchkit is better. So far I was leaning towards yours, but that might be because I haven't looked closely at Rusty's version. -Andi
