i found them separately and fixed them gradually so obviously they are 
separate commits done separately.

It's useful to have patches split up in general, so that maintainers can 
pick up each fix independently. (Also, should any of them be in the need 
of reverting it's far easier to do it than to revert a mega patch.)
