Indeed the CEDET renaming was (and still is) a source of problems because there is still an "upstream" that hasn't done the same renaming yet (or has been done, finally?). But in this particular case, I'd argue that the restructuring was for the better. This said, I'd be happy if we could solve the 8+3 issue differently.
