It'd be helpful if the changelog were a little less oblique about what
the resulting changes were...  either mention what the changes are or
mention what the current state of the code is.  Makes it much easier to
work out if the patch is doing what it's supposed to.  This was also an
issue with the original patch, it wasn't at all clear what the actual
intention was.

Anyway, I'll apply.
