- Well, I also found out that at least named pipes got broken by my inode
- reorganizations. Hope nobody is using them - the fix is simple (it's
- actually just a lack of proper wait-queue initializations), but I won't
- make a patch available until I've found most of these kinds of silly
- problems. But if you know you are using named pipes, don't upgrade to
- pl5 yet.
