I forgot to mention that change in the cover letter --- thanks for a
reminder.

Yes, all the tests in this series still pass (on this machine, at
least).  Which is why I changed it --- it is a lot easier to explain
having the '#' at the beginning and end of a magic string as part of a
patch that would break tests without that change.

Of course the specific string is arbitrary.  All caps sounds fine to
me, too.

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
