 your work is highly appreciated anyway, if you have a patch fixing a listed
 regression or you know of a commit fixing a listed regression, please drop
 a notice into the corresponding Bugzilla entry.  This will help us a lot.]  

This message contains a list of some regressions from 2.6.38,
for which there are no fixes in the mainline known to the tracking team.
