    This patch is incremental with VM-global, but that's
    only because the Conectiva kernel RPM happens to
    contain VM-global, not because I agree with all points
    of VM-global (some of the changes seem a bit .. suspect).

    Luckily my patch fixes some of the suspect areas in
    VM-global and most of the other parts of VM-global make
    a lot of sense. It's not perfect, but it should be good
    enough for 2.2.

    On whether any of these improvements are going into the
    next 2.2, don't bother asking me since I have no intention
    paying much attention to 2.2 and I was only needing it to
    install a machine with ext3...

    regards,

    Rik
