    If we spent our entire lives waiting for people to fix code nothing
    would ever happen. Removing 8K stacks is a good thing to do for many
    reasons. The ndis wrapper people have known it is coming for a long
    time, and if it has a lot of users I'm sure someone in that community
    will take the time to make patches.
