I can provide a programmatic fix to this problem, if you like, and  
that is to turn on directory restrictions in SVN, and only provide  
write access in modules to the maintainers.  That way a true patch- 
queue would be enforced.  However, it would potentially cause huge  
bottlenecks where inactive module maintainers exist/come into being.   
This is sort of what PgSQL does, all the patches come through Bruce  
Momjian who maintains the patch queue, but he does that full-time,  
while our module maintainers disappear regularly and unpredictably.
