If Robert doesn't I will. This was submitted *way* past the appropriate
deadline; and if it were so critical as all that, why'd we never hear
any complaints before?
If this were actually a low-risk patch I might think it was okay to try
to shoehorn it in now; but IME nothing involving making new use of
system-dependent APIs is ever low-risk. Look at Greg's current
embarrassment over fsync, a syscall I'm sure he thought he knew all
about.
