For those users who feel they do have a compelling argument for it, please
speak now or I'll end up maintaining this in -ck only forever. I've come to
depend on it with my workloads now so I'm never dropping it. There's no point
me explaining how it is useful yet again, though, because I just end up
looking like I'm handwaving. It seems a shame for it not to be available to
all linux users.
