Wait, I was told by a chromeos developer to do this! Matthias asked for
this patch to be merged to resolve a regression you all found on your
systems. For it to now cause problems seems really "odd" to me...

So you all need to get your story straight here :)

I want all 3 of you (Guenter, Brian, and Matthias) to figure out what is
going on here please before I do _anything_ in the stable trees with
this patch.
