As regarding to SIM buffering patches : I don't think these are to be included in any type of stable version, and there's a very simple and clear reason. Sim card has flash memory where it stores those messages if they are not requested to be output to the prompt by terminal. Every flash memory card has it's life circle , which is pretty short comparing to count of messages one would want to receive/send with it in production environment. Let's say normal Sim will not live if you save to it over 10.000 - 50.000 sms. While 10.000 seems to be a huge number, it is not actually that big, and in production environments I personally saw a sim card which received over 100.000 sms. This would not be possible if it would be over the "Sim buffering" technics, the card would simply go screwed. So far, I suppose this buffering conception is for risky people only, and we definately would not want to include in stable release something that could damage user's hardware.
