For whatever reason, I couldn't apply this patch (even when fishing a
copy of this email from the archives). It seems to be corrupted is
various ways, so I had to write the patch from scratch, which is not the
most reliable way to work. Good thing this was something trivial, I
wouldn't do it for something more complicated.

In the future, please make sure to use 'git send-email' to send your
patches, as it is known to work correctly.

Thanks,

	M.
