Right, >1MB will be moderated, as will emails that are CC'd to multiple
lists, and somehow this email thread ended up with two different
addresses for -hackers, which isn't good.

Better would be to break the patch down into reasonable and independent
pieces for review and commit on separate threads as suggested previously
and not to send huge patches to the list with the idea that someone is
going to actually fully review and commit them.  That's just not likely
to end up working well anyway.
