Without any constructive way of fixing the issues. As I've said,
"fixing" the other scripts does not work. Nobody has proposed any
reasonable realistic way of unbreaking the multilib support which worked
prior to the udev upgrade. Nobody has actually taken the time to even
understand what is breaking as far as I can tell.

Again, not constructively. People saying "no" just because they dislike
it doesn't really work.

Patch screw up :(. This will get fixed shortly, sorry about that.
