I think we're on the same page. I'd like to give the changes bake time, and I
don't consider PPC totally broken without the fixes (I believe this bug shipped
in 3.4 and we did not notice for a long time). My preference is that we queue
these patches for inclusion in 3.5.1 (assuming they stick). I want to be
confident that the cure is not worse than the disease ;)
