We can't follow this argumentation unless it is a special patch for a 
special Linux distribution. But as far as we have followed the 
communication it is a patch that applies in general, and if this is the 
case, then other persons are also interested in this patch. So, we do 
think that it should go to the place where it belongs which is actually [0].
