    Ingo pointed me at the patch.

    Sorry, but I really don't see the release there.

    It fixes a problem and uncovers others, but your comment is more a
    question than an explanation for the urgency of the fix. In fact the
    original implementation leads to solid deadlocks in

    I really can't blame Ingo for ignoring this.
