Well, it was actually mostly that the early patches I saw had very
tentative messages which made me go "Mathieu isn't sure" and kind of
waited for more forceful messages and acks from people. It wasn't
helped by the fact that Al was basically offline for a while.
That said, the patch definitely looks like the right thing to do. I'll apply it.
