Good eyes.  Thanks.

There's an identical patch in:

  https://public-inbox.org/git/cab687db8315dd4245e1703402a8c76218ee1115.1566762128.git.me@ttaylorr.com/

and both were inspired by:

  https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20793298

whose author has little info there, but I think is separate from either
submitter.

I don't know if we want to try to spread credit around via trailers.
"Racily-implemented-by:" ? :)

Anyway, the original bug is mine and the patch is obviously correct.

Thanks for mentioning. I did send mine in around a day ago now, but it
came in on a Sunday, so it makes sense that Andrey's message may have
appeared earlier in mailboxes when looking today.

I don't really mind about the credit, nor do I think there's much value
in crediting you or me with 'Racily-implemented-by'. My patch has a few
more details such as blame information (and how the typo was only made
in the explicit version, not the variadic form), so it may be worthwhile
to take that instead of this, but I don't mind either way.

Indeed. It was a little surprising to see 'banned.h' at the top of
Hacker News when I checked it this weekend :-).

Yep.

Thanks,

Nope, mine was not “inspired by” that comment, noticed the bug myself. I did look at this header because it was posted on HN, though.

Yup, that was exactly why I took that version (after tentatively
queuing the other one, but discarded before pushing the integration
result out).

Thanks, all.

Please don't X-<.
