Can you refresh this patch? I had it in the back of my mind, remembered
it when considering a similar patch by Kirill, but his covers just the
python case.

Tom, can you please check Ozan's and Kirill's patches and tell me if I
can stick your Acked-by to them?

I'll CC you on the Kirill patch on private cover.
