By the way Larry, wasn't the BKrev supposed to help with finding
the changesets on bkbits ?

Because I'm not sure if it works anymore (or how it is supposed to
work).

For example:

http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.6/cset@41fe5327BXOmplstrv49I26qAg7mIA

gives only the merge changeset, obviously not the same as the above
revision.
