:-D

I leave that as an exercise for someone else.

I don't know, it depends on how well it goes in the next week.

However, the CFG_ changes will be script driven so it's not critical
to get them in before everything else.  I don't need to do any extra
manual work if other patches go in also.  I *do* want to get them in
at the start of the merge window simply because it means they'll get
more testing that way, but that's the only reason.

For clarity sake: it is the Makefile changes that I'm most worried
about causing merge conflicts.  As long as they go in first, the rest
of my changes should be easy to merge/rebase.

Cheers,
g.
