Ok somehow I can't fetch mmotm right now...

Dan had and updated mmotm tree and it does have my v4 patch.

Does anyone else have issues with git://git.cmpxchg.org/linux-mmotm.git or is
it just me?  FWIW I have checked proxies etc... and can get to linus and other
sites just fine, so it looks like an issue there.  Although the web page is
fine...

Sorry,
Ira
