edit: ok, if you didn't notice source's filename; http://sota.gen.nz/compat2/robert_you_suck.c

And just in case... also ;)

There's a tradition of ridiculous file names for these things, like jessica_biel_naked_in_my_bed.c
Both file names and nicks really - Przemysław Frasunek listed in the code is (was?) also known as "babcia padlina" (grandma carrion)
Dobrze rozumiec :)
ea = [robert, tavis, ben]; assert uploader in ea[1:] :p

Somewhere in the kernel, 2008: "hey, what are these lines for? nah, we are safe removing them..."

edit: robert is the author of the original exploit, that resurfaced when ben found the patch had gone from kernel.

From that file, this guy http://swiecki.net/index.html is mentioned a few times in the comments, I'd guess it's him (perhaps this is what the other reply to this thread meant).
