Yes, please. While I *was* Cc'd on this patch in the pull request, I
didn't review it. I never expect PULLs to amount to such intrusive
changes -- I treat them only as a hint that my patch is going in -- so
if such changes are necessary (because the original patch doesn't apply
any longer), then please ask me to rebase, or give me an explicit
heads-up that my verification / testing is needed.

Thanks!
