As always, you're seeing the lack of available committer time, not a real
lack of interest.  One way to accelerate the process might be for someone
(not necessarily you, any reader of this mailing list could do it) to show
that this change visibly benefits some easy to run benchmark.  Some simple
setup of apachebench vs thttpd (which uses sendfile, afaik) would be
useful for this purpose.
