My intention was to provide a solution to silence the complain. Stand corrected. I didn't ask for your blessing/permisson first.

I was hoping to answer the question of why not putting all-in-one patche into a source tree to relieve the patching headaches.
again My apology to create this tension due to my bad judgement.
effort should really spend on docs,patche and bug reports.
