Let me put it this way:

 I don't have time right now to look at auto* patches at the moment
 unless they are fixing bugs with the combination that we support.

 I do plan on upgrading the combination we support for 2.2; if you
 want to put your patches in bugzilla, they'll presumably be a 
 big help when we do that.

Thanks,
