OK.

But it conflicts directly with the already-queued
execve-filename-document-and-export-via-auxiliary-vector.patch

Okay, I can rebase on -mm.

Andrew, we have one other patch (the powerpc bits) on top of that one.
Do you want to carry both in -mm on top of John's patch ? We would like

patch.

How about I send John's patch Linuswards right now?
