Hi Chu!

Thanks for the fix!

Hm. I suppose I missed the v1. I agree with Guenter that a change log 
would be nice. Then I knew what was in v1 without looking for it.

I think it would be even better if the 'so' was dropped. And, as a 
matter of fact, I am not sure the comment serves any real purpose here. 
The code pretty much says it already. So, I am OK with either dropping 
the 'so' as well, or the whole comment.

With that:
