First it's great to see that some work is done on adding support for COFF. Second:

1. Why don't we have a release branch? Making things like this not an issue
2. I see no reason why Walter need to push his changes upstream (unless he wants to collaborate with someone)
3. Wouldn't this be a perfect case for creating a new branch upstream
