I had asked if Greg could take both the patches and I have not heard from him 
yet and I
assumed that he would not. This has happened to me before and I have done just 
that -
show the need by sending patches that would use the functionality and get them 
into
the tree in the correct order. Greg, please let us know how you want to handle 
this; I have a 
bunch of patches that I am sitting not knowing how Vitaly's patches will be 
merged.
