I discussed this with Phillip a bit, and it looks like we'll go for a
2.6.21 merge. This gives a couple of months for testing and review in

than compilation testing.
Apparently I reviewed the code a while back - that grey cell must have
died. Does anyone else intend to review the code in that timeframe? If not, we might as well merge it now, if ever..
