Hi Geoff,

I'm sceptical. It does look convoluted, and a rather large change, but
the case seems reasonably serious.

I'd like the authors and reviewers to make sure they can get a single
patch that applies to 3.7.1 without failures, before we can consider a
merge. This change looks very generic and can change all targets in
unpredictable ways... I'm not sure just running spec on AArch64 would
be enough to prove the change is ok for a point release.

cheers,
