I personally would rather see some of these individual patches updated.
Once I become more familiar with circle and C programming in general I will
probably try my hand at doing it myself.  Like a few have said earlier, it
can become a headache trying to remove features you don't want.  Its much
easier to add than take things out.  Believe me, there are _plenty_ of
patches out there that need to be updated.  I think some of the ones you
mentioned putting into the "complete" codebase have yet to be updated.
Thats just my opinion though.  A "complete" codebase would be cool too.
