Ugh, I recall fixing that when compile-testing. I must have forgotten
to invoke "git commit --amend" before "git format-patch".

The Foundation's repo uses that name so I stuck by it to reduce the
number of merge conflicts Phil will have to resolve. Happy to change
though, suggestions welcome.

Thanks!
