I already flamed that patch at least once before. People didn't react.
What do I have to do to make people listen? I'm sorry, but I'm not going
to send you flowers with a card saying "Hope you do better next time!".
I realize that the flowers might be friendlier, but I have absolutely no
incentive to be friendly to just bad code. I have even _less_ incentive
when my first "that sucks" is apparently totally ignored. So now I spelled
it out why it sucks, but I sure as hell didn't have any reason to be
polite about it.
