Still, it wastes your time... for example this thread ended up be the 
ninth! bug in a patch which was not reviewed on the mailing list (see 
https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1004#c12) and is now on 
hold to be sent for review since it does not provide any benefit (see 
http://lists.openfabrics.org/pipermail/general/2008-March/048322.html), 
can we get more crazy than that?
