I do agree that since I really want to do 2.6.26 (and I don't think this 
single issue is worth holding anything up for, considering that we do have 
a tested and understood patch - I was worried for a while), for now we'll 
do the minimal thing, and release 2.6.26 with just that.

I just want the longer-term strategy to be something more understandable 
that doesn't depend on very subtle ordering of various different callback 
functions etc.
