So the thing is, there's no way I'm going to apply this kind of patch
anywhere *near* a merge window. With something like this, it needs to
get applied a few weeks after the merge window closes (when things
have calmed down) _and_ a few weeks before the next one opens (so that
we see the results in -next, and don't scramble for the next merge
window). IOW, around the -rc4 timeframe.

It sounds like it's not quite ready yet, which means that I'm not
comfy with it this round, and we'd better do this around 3.8-rc4 or so
(ie roughly this timeframe of the next release - I'll do 3.7-rc4
either today or tomorrow).
