Well, as you know, we do have a testsuite. The fact that it isn't being run 
as part of the automatic build process yet has no meaning whatsoever as long 
as it doesn't contain any tests covering the code that has been changed. 
I know writing tests can be somewhat difficult (especially for kernel code) 
and not many people like writing tests to begin with, but blaming the 
infrastructure is not really a good excuse.
