I remember pointing out this to you atleast twice but see

Nobody expects perfection, but is there really an
audience that doesn't care if their devices stop working or not?
Don't confuse robustness with ABI breakage.
There have been large chunks of time that it hasn't worked or
disks
wouldn't be recognized even if it saw a raw IEEE device. I gave up and
switched the machines that needed it to Centos with the centosplus
kernel so I don't know the current state except that I've seen comments
about a complete rewrite coming so it must still leave something to be
desired
The rewrite is already in Fedora 7 (and will be in RHEL 5.1).
