No you are right. Damn, I'm upset at myself that I missed it. Another
good reason to have you do the merge and not the subsystem
maintainers ;-)

I have a couple of small patches I'm about to test and send to you
later while the merge window is open. Would you be fine if I just add
them on top of your merge commit? That would kill two birds with one
test.

I'll have to look at that (haven't looked at your merge commit yet).
Because there were two functions that made more sense to go together,
and the merge put the odd ball one in the middle.

It's part of my script that prepares the pull request. I could remove
it. I kept it there because it also shows others the code that I am
asking to be changed. It's just my way of being open. But I'm not too
hard set to keep it. If you prefer, I can stop doing that.
