Okay, I haven't been following the discussion closely.  If these patches
introduce a known bug, then I am going to be cross.

I'm really stressed out right now.  If you at all suspect that your
patches are going to introduce bugs then just go back and say "Sorry,
don't take this one, the way it conflicts with Pavels ends up
introducing a bug.  I'll resend after Pavel's patches are applied."
