Thanks for tidying these up. My comments are very minor but
as this is changing how a core bit of infrastructure works I'd like
them to sit on the list another week anyway.
There is just enough here that I'd prefer a v2 though if you don't
get time I can probably tidy it up whilst applying.
The build bot issue is presumably a missing include.
Thanks,
Jonathan
