Hi! Here is my fifth regression report for Linux 4.9. It lists 11
regressions I'm aware of. 4 of them are new; 6 got fixed since 
the last report -- that was two weeks ago, because I yet again
didn't find any spare time to compile a report last Sunday :-/

As always: Are you aware of any other regressions? Then please let me
know (simply CC regressions@leemhuis.info). And please tell me if there
is anything in the report that shouldn't be there.

Ciao, Thorsten
