Thanks for this timely advice! I was on the fence about the best way to
send these out. I'll break it up into subsystem patchsets (that don't
directly include Valentin's patch, but do refer to it) instead, which as
you say, should go *much* more smoothly.

In fact, just yesterday I fixed the last warning, so I'll start posting
some much smaller patchsets later today.


thanks,
