Zero-copy TCP patches - missing in action?

Weren't the zero-copy patches supposed to make it into -current some time back? I recall a little grumbling over it since it made it necessary for some other projects to sync up their own work, but nobody seemed to object in principal and zero-copy TCP is a real marketing point if we can actually

My feeling on this is that sysinstall is (and always has been :-) at the end of its life and adding multi-lingual capabilities to it is a reasonable part of its retirement. The libh project is promising but suffers from a lack of volunteers, volunteers who aren't working on sysinstall either so I
