That's a not so good news. Hmm... Linus itself is the last instance...
especially in _contentious_ questions... and his decision is _the_
decision at all!
Hmmm... beginning an quarrel and hoping Linus would make the _right_
decision at the end...??? :)
But I am not sure, if this is the right way to push it for 2.5.x. But it
could or should the _last_ way we should go to push it... Any comments?
