That's not true. What's true is that you didn't seem to _understand_ my solution, so I tried to push the understanding of it. There are always other solutions. I seriously doubt that Uwe's is a maintainable one. That said, even a one-time "reduce the size of that stinking pile of sh*t" is probably better than nothing. I hope you at least do agree that the current situation is a steaming pile of sh*t. And yes, I _will_ remove the crap, both from POWER and ARM, unless I see some serious tries at fixing it.
