No, tunnel runnel will take a few weeks and I'm heading off for
vacation on Saturday as well ( 2 weeks ).

I recommend pulling the suid root bit and explaining in the release
notes how to re-enable the bits ( for the time being ).

I will merge down a subset of changes from my branch, build, and test
and then commit back up in a few hours.  Unfortunatly the changes
touched many of the same files so it's going to be fun merging them.
