Umm. That was during the late -rc sequence (what, -rc8?) where I wanted a 
minimal "let's fix it". Not that anybody then apparently cared, which is 
probably just as well.

Then you did NOTHING AT ALL about it, now the merge window is over, and 
you complain again, with what looks like basically the same patch that was 
already rejected earlier.

Hellooo..
