There have been some proposals already and we can now incrementally improve the workaround and, more importantly, start fixing individual ports. Please note that the patch tries to balance between being a general enough fix to make it easy to get a working system running while not just swiping the whole issue under the rug and forget about it until the next release cycle. Make sure to send any fixes upstream to the hack can be removed from the ports again. Thanks for all your patience and thanks for all those involved, especially beat who sent many patches and improvements.
