Why would be squashing all those into a single one be a problem. I will
not insist of course but I would much rather see a single patch which is
easy to review and doesn't contain any intermediate hacks to prevent
from compile time issues than 3 patches with the last one removing hacks
and a large part of the implementation. You can easily record the
multiple authors can be easily recorded in the s-o-b chain.
