Nothing to say, really.  Seems each time we're told about a bug or a
regression, David either fixes the bug or points out why it wasn't a
bug or why it wasn't a regression or how it was a deliberate behaviour
change for the better.

I just haven't seen any solid reason to be concerned about the state of
the current oom-killer, sorry.

I'm concerned that you're concerned!  A lot.  When someone such as
yourself is unhappy with part of MM then I sit up and pay attention. 
But after all this time I simply don't understand the technical issues
which you're seeing here.
