Well, if you want to post an updated patch that's independent of the
rest of the series, I guess you can... but I think the chances of that
getting applied for this release are pretty much zero.  That patch
relies on some subtle changes to the contract implied by an operator
family and what looks at first blush like a lot of grotty hackery.  I
can't get very excited about spending a lot of time on that right now,
especially given the amount of difficulty we've had reaching a meeting
of the minds on cases that don't have those problems.
