I'll try to make patches to -STABLE and 4.0-RELEASE available before the weekend. FWIW, it the backport should be trivial. The main changes between -current linux emulation and -stable linux emulation is a shuffling of the files to make it possible to integrate linux/alpha support for the alpha port. Linux/alpha support, btw, is a Good Thing for the alpha port, as it gets us access to the world-class compilers from Compaq.
