I'd just like to notify you and the others on this
list that I am currently going through your
patches to verify their functionality and
recommend an action to be taken.

Just as a first not patch for BG #516 does not
apply cleanly. The addition of RFC 1583
compatibility has made some stuff look different
and so patch can't really find where to apply
things.
