Ok, since no one cares enough about this to respond, then it's just a
matter of personal preference.

_I_ don't deal with cvs issues nor do I do gnu imports.  So you can do
whatever you want.  I suggested a way that I like but since you like your
way, there's no reason to push my way on you if those that do deal with
cvs issues or gnu imports don't care.  I'll continue doing things my way
in the acpica tree and we'll both be happy.

The only reason I brought this up is that I thought someone who has to
deal with both of us in the overall tree (i.e. cvs_at_ or trb_at_) might have an
opinion.  If that opinion meant I had to change my style, I would.  But no
opinions so we're both free to do things our own way.  Carry on.
