Hi,

I think that some more explanation of this is required.
Including if a problem has been observed, and if so under what
conditions. Or, if not, some background information on why
this adjustment is correct.

I also think some explanation is required of the relationship
between the changes this patch makes to setup, and the
changes it makes to start and stop.
