I'd rather not patch the stable version with this rather untested
patch.

Neil, this is about c7b474474c793e9a82bd0d84868fdf7367c89696. Will
you make a 2.6.10 sometime for this?

Carl, once 2.6.10 is out with the patch, I'd be happy to create
a new package and then we could backport that to stable. Would this
be acceptable?
