Can you please split the via ide hack from pegasos.diff into
pegasos-via-ide-hacks.diff?
The former is completely unproblematic to be applied for all kernels while
the latter breaks all non-pegasos users of via82cxxx (and I'm not even
sure whether there might be other ppc uses)
Sven, any updates on talking to upstream about the pegasos changes?

I'll work on a script now, still looking for someone whoe could help
on the packaging bits for a kernel-source-2.6.7 that uses split-patches.
