I would normally not care whether we did it now or postponed it to 8.1,
but I am concerned that we will find ourselves spending time fixing bugs
in the USERLIMIT code if we leave it in 8.0. I already spent half a day
fixing some coredump cases in it not long ago, and I have little
confidence that there aren't more problems.

Anyone else have an opinion on this? Bruce and I clearly aren't
convincing each other.
