Indeed it is. Now, let me vent here for a moment...
I WOULD BE BLOODY GRATEFUL IF SOMEONE WOULD ACTUALLY TELL ME THESE THINGS AHEAD OF TIME FOR A BLOODY CHANGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Every time something changes, something like 200 lusers write to me to bitch & whine, and I have to do script maintenance as soon as possible, despite anything else I may have wanted to do. I am getting rather sick and tired of having to second-guess the kernel maintainers, and I would really like to get just a bit of consideration in that manner.
