BTW, how serious have you been back at KS when you were talking about
pull requests killing a thousand of lines of code being acceptable
at any point in the cycle?  Because right now I'm sitting on a pile that
removes 2-3 times as much (~-2KLoC for stuff that got considerable
testing for most of the architectures, -3KLoC if I include fork/clone/vfork
unification series) and seeing how maintainers of a bunch of embedded
architectures seem to be MIA...  The idea of saying "screw them" and sending
a pull request becomes more and more tempting every day ;-)
