compared to the rather sophisticated linux-kernel
changesets that i see from you on this list -- it's
child's play...

compared to figuring out the list of options for
ofed_scripts/configure just so we can _see_ the
source we're running on our box -- it's a walk in
the park...

one of the goals of OFED 1.3 is to make access
to the source easier.  to do that, we will prob
need to rid ourselves of patches...
