Yeah, but it got sent to me today, which is why I reacted. But:

Oooh, and yes I did miss that entirely. The "[stack]" thing has been part 
of /proc/pid/maps since 2005 (v2.6.12-rc1 according to the historical 
logs), so it never even entered my mind that it would be about that 
ancient thing.

But right you are, and I withdraw any objections. Sorry for the noise,
