Well, bcrl argues that patches 1-2 of 3 are actively wrong.

Quite frankly, my gut feel is that this late in the game, the only
patch I should apply is 3/3, and even that I wonder about. But that
seems to *really* disable all the games we do, and that all seem to be
questionable.

Comments? Please? I'm going to do an -rc9 today, and after that I'll
be travelling a lot, so..
