Heh.  Damn.  I was just starting to prepare my evening push and
this patch is in maint, which I just merged to master, and I just
rebased all of my pu topic branches over that.  Junio's Meta toolkit
doesn't have an "unrebase" so I can go back and amend that damn
commit before pushing.

I'm feeling lazy and don't want to create an unRB right now.
I'll probably just throw another commit into maint to fix the
above hunk.  Thanks for catching it.
