The _2_4_devel tree at the moment, since that still has generally better
infrastructure for non-pmacs :)  I would also like to see a patch
against the current linuxppc-2.5 tree as well.  It doesn't have to be as
well tested as the 2_4_devel version, and if the tree as a whole doesn't
compile at the time, make a/b/c.o is actually legal in 2.5 so just make
sure your changes still compile.

If you aren't already on the linuxppc-commit@source•mvista.com list, you
might want to join that.  If a change makes it into any of the
linuxppc_* lists, a msg gets sent there.  If you want to propose a
change cc relevant people (generally Paul and / or myself) and send it
to the linuxppc-dev and / or linuxppc-embedded lists.  Someone will
speak up, even if it's only me to say I'm too busy today. :)
