I made the requested changes, the pre-console buffer only gets compiled in
if it is explicitly configured and it works a treat

I see no reason not to include it (along with the pre-console printf()
squelching)

The only related patch that was under discussion was 'flagifying' a couple
of global variables which opened up a question regarding the impact on API
versioning - Wolfgang resolved this with 'gd does not impact API version'
so the 'flagify' patch could also be added to the mix, but that's not
really that critical and could come in later after the dust settles.

Unified timer API would be the next 'least contentious' - There is
universal agreement on the why, but not on the how. I'll reopen this again
'soon'

The initcall API is the most contentious... Asbestos suit is still on the
clothes line drying ;)

Regards,

Graeme
