hmm. Andy is the expert here, maybe you ask him over on the kernel list.
Why pin it to an old andy-tracking version, and then manually base it  
on a kernel.org tree + manually generated diff? Sounds complicated to  
me...
As of today, I believe andy-tracking is already based on .29, and if  
you don't have local patches why don't you just build andy-tracking  
live as it is?

I'd say take it to the kernel list and ask Andy.
Best Regards,
Wolfgang
