I know that hajime has done some of them (I also did get some private
emails from others saying they had patches but I did not see the
patches) and we are trying to merge his code. Hajime: do you want to
make these public ? If so, can you post the url to your mercurial patch
queue ?

because, what has now become obvious is that implementing this huge
thing and making it work reliably is impossible without some amount of
regression tests.
