Re: [ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [aandrejevic] 66666: [NTVDM][FAST486] - Implement VDDInstallMemoryHook and VDDDeInstallMemoryHook using page guards. - Implement another API for memory hooks that should be faster than page guards ...

Pretty good choice, as I wouldn't want to taint kernel or other 
important part of the system by 66666 commit made on Friday 13th... ;-)
