(Wiping egg off face) Please accept my apologies; I am afraid that the
line must have been wrapped by the mailer I used  :( 

I ran checkpatch.pl on the patch before sending it.
I even sent the patch to myself first.
The worst is that I did notice that some lines were wrapped to about 72
columns.
However as I had previously used the same mailer to send patches to
other people and to the LAK mailing list without problems, I figured
that the wrapping was happening at the receiving end.
With the intention of improving the presentation for others using the
same mailer, I even modified the commit comment part, which I had
written in 80 columns, down to 72 columns and tried again.

I have now experimented with "git send-email" and the result seems clean
so I shall use this in the future. The only thing that I am now worried
about is getting the headers right so that I do not break the thread.

I shall try sending the patch again later and I apologize in advance in
case it breaks the thread  :( 

Sorry again for wasting your time.

Cheers,
Chris
