I've bootstrapped and regtested the hunks for rtx as cited up-thread without 
regressions (as expected).

I know everybody is busy, but I'd like to know if I should swap these out 
completely,   or postpone this until start of stage3 or next stage 1 or 
something.
I can easily keep these local to my personal pre-configure stage for my own 
amusement.
