I've used the original source of these changes extensively on an SMP
SiByte system and Octeon.  I think as long as we continue to do
commits in small chunks, that level of testing is probably alright,
since it's not so hard to binary search (and I'm willing to binary
search on any hardware I have or can easily get.)

Thanks,
Juli.
