	2) SRP is missing on RHEL4
(http://openib.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51), which is a big
regression.
	It was removed on purpose since when running simple tests system
is hanged due to the spin-lock issue in kernel 2.6.9 (see discussion of
Ishai and Doug about this). We can put it back but I don't see a point
in putting something that easily halts the machine or causing kernel
oops. Ishai is working to debug it and once it is solved we will put it
back.
	What is your opinion on this?

	In OFED 1.0 rc2, SRP was working on RHEL4 2.6.9, at least on
x86_64.  All other SRP implementations I know of work on RHEL4 2.6.9.  I
think OFED SRP on RHEL4 2.6.9 is a must have.

	 

	SRP in OFED consists of too many patches right now, we need to
get the functionality checked into SVN not just patched on top of SVN
(see bug 62 that I just filed,
http://openib.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=62).
