I suspect that LWG is too small a list to ask such questions. I've added hpdd-discuss and lustre-devel to the CC list. I'm not against it in principle, but I have no idea how much work this will be to implement.

This would make it easier/faster to build, install, and upgrade Lustre in existing installations without changing things we don't need to. It would also make it easier to re-use LNET in other projects, and make it easier for unusual users to maintain a customized LNET. I have no idea how this might affect landing in mainstream kernel.
