Thanks.  Will see if it makes sense to apply.

While it is true that is a typo, fixing it here won't correct it for
the 2.31 release as it was tagged and released long time ago.  And
of course, it will be silly to issue 2.31.1 maintenance release to
fix a typo in the release notes for 2.31.0 release.  So...
