Hi,

some weeks ago I worked on this. Put a significant amount of time into
the update, waited for replies and asked upstream about the cdhome
issue as I don't understand tcsh syntax that much.
This is exactly why I don't think email is the perfect tool for project
work. There is no reminder to tell you someone already worked on this,
no interactive search unless you have it yourself.
It would be good if you could search the archive next time and tell me
to rebase or redo it on core-updates.
