I may be missing something of course, but I don't see any strong
reason why we need to do a revert here if we have patches to discuss
first.

Thomas, do you want me to look more at this issue?  I don't feel
comfortable with the idea of doing anything if you are planning to
look at this thread and you are the owner here, so that should be your
call.

From what I can see, we have the same area getting patched with
patches across two threads, so it seems better to give up the other
thread and just focus on the discussion here, where v7 has been sent:
