Ok.  Not sure why I couldn't find it under the "All" state earlier.  I
see it now.

"changes requested" is what I was expecting, but didn't see it.
Strange indeed.

It's not overly important, since it was whitespace corrupted and I have
a fixed version anyway.  But it's still odd it's not on patchwork.

Oh, I didn't realize you could actually outright delete them.  I tend
to look after ibm_newemac because it's mostly related to 4xx and I get
to bug BenH to do the jgarzik bugging because he said he wants to be
the maintainer.  I have no problems cleaning them up.
