You go on to describe an uncommon case and defend this patch as
an imperfect work-around for that uncommon case.
I guess you are arguing against the patch but are just explaining
why it appeared on Andy's radar?

When I am made whole. Roughly this will correspond to when
I can turn my back on much of this stuff, go off, and catch
up on raising kids. If Canonical is part of that -- fine. If
not, well, then at least I don't have to give a shit about them
anymore.
And yes, going forward after being made whole would
include continuing to make contributions to the
world in the form of hacking although, if you find *anything*
of value in the history of Arch, you should see what I can do
when I'm not compelled to do a super-human rush job -- as far
as I'm concerned, everything from larch onward is just an
effective goof -- it's crap. Compelling, demonstrative, useful
crap -- but rush-job crap nonetheless.
