Applied, but Catalin please strictly refer to changes in the following
precise format:

	commit $SHA1_ID ("Commit message header line text")

Because SHA1_IDs are ambiguous, especially when the change in question
is backported into various -stable branches.

The only way to resolve the ambiguity is to provide the commit message
text (in parenthesis and double quotes).
