But how many people on cooker (besides you, Juan and Danny) know this? If everyone on cooker knew this, why would they be reverting packages?

And if Juan is working on another kernel update for 9.1, shouldn't the patch be applied there too, or must we keep telling people not to use Mandrakesoft kernels but Danny's update instead?
