I'd hate to see 2.4.0 going out without urbs, because that would mean that audio would not work in any of 2.4.X. If 2.4.0 goes out with urbs, it still may have minor implementatino problems, but we can fix that in 2.4.X series, and 2.4.5 will have rock-solid usb with audio working. [BTW urbified uhci works pretty well for me. I see some problems with audio (oops after hour of usage), but that's way better than old usb where audio just do not work. ACM and printer work in both versions well.]
