I'd suggest splitting the patch into sections if necessary. A patch
that's over 100K zipped is likely to be unmanageable from a reviewing
standpoint anyhow --- it would be better to think about how to factor
it into separate patches ...
But in any case, Alvaro is correct to complain about external links.
We want the patch to be in the list archives.

Uh, we did. You'll notice David's 140K email got through.
