I had applied all of these patches in my copy of the mmotm tree and it does compile. Of course, you've probably added a few patches that I don't have in the meantime. > > I have a feeling that I merged all these patches too soon - the amount > of rework has been tremendous. Are we done yet? By merging them, we did find problems on platforms and configurations that I can't easily test. Most of the rework has served to simplify the resulting code, IMO. As for being done, I don't know. Depends on whether anyone else finds issues with other configs or platforms that haven't tested these series yet. And, I'm continuing to review the current patches. I did run the mmotm-080729 series for over 20 hours last night under a fairly heavy stress load on one of my ia64 systems. No errors, no leaked pages, ... Looks pretty good. Until the next test comes along... So, as I mentioned, I've rebuilt with today's fixes applied to mmotm-080730 and will test more tomorrow. [We just moved our lab across state lines and my test systems are just coming on-line.] I'll keep an eye on the mmotm site and try to stay current with that. Thanks for applying these.
