What happened was really that I did a partial integration just to make it
easier to synchronize. I wanted to basically have pre9-2 + quintela's
patch, but I had too many emails to go through and too many changes of my
own in this area, so I made pre9-3 available so that others could help me
synchronize.

So on't despair, pre9-3 is definitely just a temporary mix of patches, and
is lacking the balancing that Quintela did.
