No, I think its better to do nothing on "alias.c".

Yes. And thanks, your patch looks good, but please send a proper patch for 
it latter if you really care about it.

(By proper I mean in its own email and not attached. And I know my patch 
included in my previous email was bad (corrupted tab, sorry about that,  
and not in its own email), but it was only for discussion, yours too 
granted.)

Now I think that you should focus on your GSoC application as you don't have 
much time left to improve it and I just asked you for more information.

Thanks,
Christian.
