Hmm, you like my version but then below argue against every point I make in favour of it? I'm confused? Did you mean to say you liked a suggested other revision or... really this one? :) If so and Dave likes it too then LGTM, pending any Linus/other veto. For the rest of your email - a lawyer would say 'asked and answered'. I've responded to every point of yours there about 3 times apiece across the thread and I don't think it's a good use of time to loop around on things! Cheers, Lorenzo
