If not, please give me a heads up of at least 24-48 hours before you commit so that I can do alpha. I'd rather you did it, but I'm willing to take it on if nobody else is... Also, a number of files in the patch appear to have the addition of #include as their only change (coda/coda_namecache.c, linprocfs_misc.c, etc). Is this intentional?
