No, not really.

What you wrote above is starting to become a descriptive message -- what 
you put in the re-sent patch is basically nothing.  You need to write 
what the problem was, and and also the technical thing that you are doing.

In particular, in this case, a whole series of trace records in 
xentrace_format have "1" for the subclass field, when they should have "f".
