Hmmm, I think I haven't seen this patch in the HEAD yet. In general: The 
current quite liberal (a.k.a. chaotic :-) ) style where patches are 
somtetimes applied to STABLE first and merged to HEAD later and vice versa 
gives me some headaches. In good old times we fixed the HEAD and simply 
merged this to STABLE. :-( Is there an automatic way to see which patches 
should still be merged into which direction? If not, we should handle things 
a bit stricter, I guess...

Cheers,
