I have to admit that I was really hoping Tom would follow through on
his statement that he would look into this one, or that Dean Rasheed
would get involved. I am sure I could do a good review of this patch
given enough time, but I am also sure that it would take an amount of
time that is at least one if not two orders of magnitude more than I
put into any patch this CommitFest. I understand statistics at some
basic level, but I am not an expert on them the way some people here
are.
