PTO ?

Well, I don't know if there is a good method for transversal patchsets 
like this one. I guess it depends on the area. 

The overall merging process became more complex that expected after our 
three simple patchsets (Yours, Joel's and mine) collided.

It's not a big issue. We have time to provide fixes before 4.1 is out. 
Let's put some energy to move on and get code merged.

Peter, 

do you want me to resend with only the two first patches and include 
Joel's in the same series ? I would leave out the part Philippe is 
covering in his object_initialize_child() patchset.

Thanks,

C.
