I just had an impression that the original was complaining about the
command failing, and the patches addressed a side issue that the
error message that is given when the command fails uses an undefined
value.  The report was not quite clear what Bagas considerd a
regression (e.g. did the command allow an invalid address like <pi@pi>
but now it complains?), though.
