The text quoted does come from that commit, but because there is
nothing more that a reader would need to read from that commit to
follow and understand this change, including its log message with
the quoted parts, I did not give a reference to the commit, in order
to avoid wasting readers' time.  In other words, yes I meant that
commit, and no, I didn't mean to "say" e379fdf....  I meant to say
"An earlier commit" and taht is what I did.
