It looks like you're speaking of Amy's patch?

As of now, I'm taking your 1.1.13 tree, applying her patch, applying my
patch, and working from that.  That's ok for now, but porting that stuff
forward might get old if applying those patches starts failing due to
other reasons.

What would you think of some compile-time experimental #ifdef sections?
Such that we can continue working/testing (especially our LSPP test team
developing test cases) but keeping it out of the code path for the
majority of your users?

Just a thought....
