Matthieu,
what good things happen if instead of using bjorn's current tweak to simply set STA.present we use your patch here
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3358
which doesn't re-write the bits?

Bjorn, will the case that provoked your change still work?

it is interesting now to google for:
"functional but not present; setting present"
it comes up on more than Tiger systems...

thanks,
-Len

Shall we discard the patch in this bug report? Shall we keep the current code and discard the warning?
