Actually, blame me for this. I asked Pancham to send the patch
to the mail list so I would be able to pick it and test it ... I guess
it would have been less confusing if I had just taken the patch
in private and tested it and then sent it out instead...

Good point, I've also seen "[RFT]" (request for testing) in some
cases.

Anyway, I'll just go test this thing now and see if it works as
intended.
