Well for instance you have a "# FIXME Just for testing" comment in the
series file for 2.6.26, so I stopped applying patches beyond that.

I think there's a case for just including the patches above 
"# NEXT_PATCHES_END" and letting people tell me which ones to cherry
pick beyond that. Unfortunately, all the aranym patches seem to live 
beyond that.

I'd be happy if there was a well-formed comment that I could code
around to drop out a series of patches or to not include patches 
beyond.

Thanks,

Stephen
