Yeah, I think the first half solves a lot of problems.  I'm rebasing
it now and will send a v12 series shortly.  I don't think there's a
lot standing between the first few patches and merging.  I've got IGT
tests and I'm pretty sure the code is good.  The last review cycle got
distracted with some renaming fun.
