After our last discussion, I suggested changes which I then undertook
and reposted.  Those changes have been posted for over two weeks.
I've continued to resolve any bugs with the patches and keep them
rebased.

Is it just that you will not accept the prctl()-based approach?  If
that's the case, I'm confused as it doesn't seem like there was
support for a perf-based change or a change that was more fundamental.

If you would re-outline the places where it falls down, that would be
useful.  If it is just that you do not think we can reach agreement,
that would be useful to know as well.

thanks,
will
