Before I pull this, I want somebody to double-check it:

This change does *not* match the comment just above it. The comment
talks very much about revision 13.

So the comment should be fixed, and/or that "< 0x13" should perhaps be
"<= 0x13".

Because making it "less than" simply makes no sense in light of the
comment. Does revision 13 suddenly work? Was that where it was fixed?
If so, please fix the comment.
