I don't think merging with 2.3.99pre1 before verifying it works on at least
one other non-x86 architecture is a good idea.  I'd also prefer it if someone
tried nfsroot aso with it before.

Wouldn't it be a good idea to choose a kernel that has been released for more
than 2 days for merging ?

I do, but am still waiting for reactions to the Assembly Language Changes
thread.

My changes can as easily be merged after we moved to 2.3.99pre1 as they can
now.
