If you say that the patch won't affect the stability of a stable running
2.6.x kernel we might actually consider integrating it into the 'linux-2.6'
module.
Now I only need to get up my lazy ass and pitch out the linux-2.6 module
(yes, I'm very lazy today). Will happen until the weekend.

Btw .. are you ready for releasing GNOME 2.8 once there is a stable 2.6
kernel module? What are you going to do with dbus?
