Thanks Stephen for reporting this.  yes, the patch from Paul replaces
the empty commit that you see.  After I cherry-picked the 3 commits from
the -tip tree, I had pushed my existing patches that had older Paul's
bulkref patch (removed the changes as part of merge; thats why it shows
my name in author for the faulty commit;) I should have removed the
commit. 

Sorry for the inconvienience.
