TWIMC, I mentioned this twice in mails to Linus, he didn't get involved,
so I assume things are fine the way they are for him. And then it's of
course totally fine for me, too. :-D

Thx again for all your help and sorry for causing trouble, but in my
line of work these "might or might not be a regression from Linus
viewpoint, so let's get him involved" sometimes just happen.

Ciao, Thorsten

#regzbot resolve: apparently not a regression from Linus viewpoint
