But myself, nor any other developers, are going to review your work
any faster if you do things like try to slip things in behind the

put your AF_UNIX garbage collector rewrite directly into his -mm tree.

mmm...  I didn't see it as a slip-behind-the-back thing.  More a "park it
in -mm for a bit of concurrent testing and so it doesn't get lost and so I
don't have to worry about it any more" thing.  Plenty of that goes on.

It wasn't done in a very subtle way though ;)
