David, what do you think ?
I frankly don't care at this point.

The only reasonable thing is if someone can successfully do the
backport, but if that's not possible there really isn't anything
reasonable we can do, all the other options have fatal negative
consequences which make them completely untenable.
I agree.  I'm pretty sure the distros basing their releases on 3.0 are
aware of this issue, so perhaps someone could dig through those tree and
see how they resolved this issue, if at all.
I haven't found any distris which has backported something regarding
this issue.

Also it seems that there's only Ubuntu using 3.0. Debian and others have
already moved to 3.1 / 3.2. Anything i miss?

I've made my own backport of the patch and removed at least 1-2
dependencies. Anybody interested?
