You're talking to Al "even less polite than Linus" Viro, so I wouldn't
take any bets on it.
Or he might be talking about me.
There's a reason Al is widely feared in the linux-kernel mailing list
community.
The Mexicans have the Chupacabra. We have Al Viro. If you hear him roar,
just _pray_ he's about to dissect somebody elses code than yours.. There
is no point in running.
