I guess there may even be more around. But I don't think it's a good
idea to make this a "blocker" for such an OS/Net tree-wide change. IMO
it's better to do the change ASAP (with lots of PIT before the putback
to make sure we get a useable system as result) because it would give us
lots of time to find all the problems.
