I agonized for a while and then realized, "sometimes the best engineered 
solution is a hose clamp" (Garner Martin, Easy racer founder), or in our case, 
a P-clamp.  :)
The top mounts don't carry any vertical load, just horizontal. A P-clamp is 
short, so less flex, less vertical twisting of the rack, less weight, simple 
and you can't strip it out, like a braze on (which I did on my fork lowers). 
Less of a point stress riser on the fork too. Clayton (Bend)

Haha yeah, the idea of having 2 sets of braze ons that close and neither of 
them being all that useable is quite frustrating. I probably need to just stop 
fighting it and resign myself to the p-clamps.... Though that chainring hack 
looks pretty good.
