I'm afraid I can't commit to any work at present. But regarding the mounting of /etc, that's just one or two commits at the end of the patchset. Just drop them to remove the feature. But do note that the feature is entirely harmless even if left in--it's not used by default. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
