Due to my above mess-up, blueness reply didn't get to the list, but I'll
manually forward the reply that I got, further below.

(blueness replied to me:)

i don't know, but even if the bug carries over, we still need to move
foward on this.

Thanks, Professor Basile!

And the need to move forware I, of course, I understand. But 4.4.8-r1
has the mad COW, and the 4.7.10 will probably have that bug carried
over...

I spent almost two days testing for that bug, and should be off, and
will be off with other business... But I too use my machines daily, and
I don't have a reliable system now...

Oh well, it happens, what can you... Maybe I'll somehow survive ;-)
