Release Engineering <releng-1-5@netbsd.org> has responded to Darren
on this issue, under seperate cover. Feel free to direct queries to
us regarding our actions.


In general, all code that is committed to a release branch (such as the
netbsd-1-5 branch) is reviewed by Release Engineering, and we will revert
commits that are not subject to that review process.
