Fantastic, thanks for the heads-up.

Not that I recall, but that doesn't mean a whole lot ;).

Things have wound down quite a bit as everyone goes on holiday, but  
one of the things I did before the break was to get the rds-devel svn  
tree building against OFED kernel-smp-devel rpms that forgot to  
include the rdma/* headers that RDS needs.  That should hit when I  
get back and will help folks test OFED backports to RHEL4.
