Well, I'm thinking about Simon's patch that some decided on procedural
grounds only that it was too late to apply in 9.1, and some others were
saying that given the cost benefit ratio of such a small patch that the
design had already been agreed on, it is legible for 9.1.

I think that we just expressed opinions on the async|recv|fsync|apply
patch, and that we've yet to reach a consensus and make a decision.
