Well to be fair, the BSD's haven't been doing their share for a while.  All 
this net/open work in "my own repro" hasn't helped either.

The inclusion of the intel gem code was actually a good thing as the multiple 
branch linux work was a disorganized mess at best.

It also seems to of generated more traffic on this list then I have seen in a 
long time (wake-up call?).

On a side note, intel just eliminated any reason for a BSD user to buy any of 
their new hardware.  yea??

Personally I really haven't cared to much about git master usability as I'm 
waiting for radeon dri2 and r600 support.

Having said all of that, I'll add that I'm hoping to get a commit bit soon 
given that I have a number of local patches that reduces the unnecessary 
differences (that's the plan anyway).
