v1 was here:

This patch series is a little bit better.  It's still a bit of a hack.
The _real_ fix for this is outlined in the TODO file (see patch 1) but
that requires a lot more work than we could do before 1.42 is
released, unless we delay 1.42 for a lot longer.  I'm hoping with this
to have something which works for 1.42, and then fix it properly in
1.43.

Patch 2 is a debugging patch.  It's separated out because we might
consider reverting it in future once we are confident that the
approach is working.

Patch 3 is the second change necessary to how we launch the supermin
appliance.  This actually stands alone so could be reviewed
separately.  It requires a modest update to our baseline supermin
version.

Patch 4 should be ignored, it's just for my (additional) debugging.

Rich.
