Did I mention that I already have a pr open for this, *with* a patch
to apply to the kernel included?

Unless I screwed up my send-pr, which I might have, but I did see
my pr come back across the list.

Anyway, Briggs sent me a patch for the not ready error, which I will
try as soon as I can.

I only have 5 homework assignments and two more tests this week.

Sigh.
