tbh, I'd rather prefer reverting the changes and then implementing your
changes on top. In your patch 4/5 we'd restore the behaviour to before
39afe69ad7d2 but it's not obvious in the history. A "Revert blah bla" is
more visible. The other patches can then be pushed on top.

I think that's the better approach as well. It would also highlight and document<BR>
the desirable changes.

Would still like to hear back from Diego since he may have some extra
arguments pro/con the whole thing. Right now, I'm quite willing to sacrifice
build-time for maintainer time though.

I would too. There is some guess work on my part due to changes not being
explained in the commit text. I am sure the bottom line will be on the plus side.
