According to Andrey it didn't, but since Linus you are talking about not
breaking userspace, without this patch many userspace applications and
scripts are broken so at least can we put this in 2.6.15.1 ? It doesn't make
any sense when you leave userspace broken obviously ( there is a bugzilla
entry and a ready patch ) and talking about userspace compatibility at the
same time.
