Thanks.

The patch is whitespace damaged and does not apply, though. I manually typed the same change and commited with a tweaked log message, so no need to resend this one, but for future reference, please try sending a patch to yourself and make sure it applies cleanly (and if it doesn't, figure out where tabs are eaten and lines are wrapped and fix that problem before sending the patch to the list).
