  You made 2 huge commits in CVS head, now a lot of regression tests just
fail on my stable dnotify machine (inotify is still not part of an official
kernel realease it really has to work), I really can't release in that shape.
Please refrain from accumulating such large changes and commiting them all in
a block, and always make sure the make tests don't show any error (or justify
the change so it still passes) before any commit.
  Now what should I do revert or wait ? I would say revert because I
was thinking of a release and the release stuff 1/ should have make tests
pass and 2/ CVS users should have had some time to run it prior to the release.

  If I don't revert I don't expect to release before the end of the week.
