Kevin, what should I do about these patches?  It needs rebasing, but
there are several bugfixes in here, and there are more that I need to
submit. Some ideas about what I could do to help:

- split it in chunks, and see where we get by the time of 1.1 (risk of
not finding problems in late patches)

- find patches that are in RHEL, prod RHEL reviewers for a Reviewed-by.
