Any ETA or update on urcu bundling? It's not urgent and I've
been busy with other projects, too; but it could be helpful for
planning around other work.
Anyways, I'm pretty satisfied at my original patch and will use
the __poll call in my next iteration. My main concern right now
is not hurting existing fast cases. So I will need to look into
more benchmarks on list archives and wiki...
Thanks.
