I sure am willing to integrate what I find appropriate. (I already said
that I was going to do that before, when Sam Ravnborg posted some
functionally split out pieces form kbuild-2.5). This surely doesn't
include the patches which just were the original kbuild-2.5 split into
"add this new file, then add that new file" patches, though.

Please, everybody, give me some time to do so, my queue of patches to
clean up, test and submit is already beyond any reasonable limit, so it
won't be done by the day after tomorrow. When I'm done integrating what I 
find appropriate, I'd be more than happy to discuss what else other people 
want, but please let me do that part first, so that we have a reasonable 
basis to start from. I also hope that at that point the discussion will be 
much less heated.

So if you have split patches, which do one thing at a time (as opposed to 
nothing or N things at a time, where N >> 1), feel free to send them to me 
and bug me about it - no need to resend stuff which was already on the 
list, though. But please save me the rest of the flamewar for now.
