Of course; that is the breakage you are trying to fix, no? My comment was
that I understand you are trying to, but the patch is not actually fixing
it.
If anything, it is making it worse. Earlier we would have got a false
breakage that would make people notice and take a look. With your patch
applied, we instead would let a breakage in parts earlier than these
"unset VAR;" go unnoticed, no?
