Sigh, indeed. I think what happened is I applied the fixup locally,
tested it, and then later reapplied the patch from the list as I was
integrating the new automatic "Link:" generation script that has been
proposed on the ksummit list.

I'll get this pushed immediately.

Lesson learned: no manual local fixups, ask for resends to always be
able to pull the exact contents from the list.
