On this tangent: in the process of trying to resolve my own scalability
issues with lxr.linux.no, I have a private lxr codebase that has
diverged non-trivially from mainline.  (And I do regret that, my
experience is in line with Paul's here...)  Still, I do hope to put this
into production on lxr.linux.no in the near future.  Once that happens,
I'd be interested in assessing the actual gap to mainline, but in the
mean time the code lives in a private repository of mine under the name
"lxrng".  If any of the movers and shakers in the lxr-mainline camp feel
uncomfortable with me using this name in public as well, I'd like to
know.  I do feel I have a certain historical claim to the "lxr" name,
but at the same time I'd like to avoid stepping on peoples toes.
