Comment:

 I'm de-milestoning this due to a lack of developer interest. Currently we
 have many bugs and few developers; many of these bugs affect platforms far
 more common than i386 and these are the bugs we will focus on.

 However, don't let this stop you, the motivated reader,  from picking this
 up. There are several ideas for fixing this issue described in this
 ticket. Please do pick one and implement it!
