Was this from bitkeeper?
Unfortunately - I think this changed somewhere after inception of
tc, pre-git. But i cant find any way to trace that. So we could point a
finger and say this bug "has always been there from day one"
and we need a way to annotate that.

Also, please suggest a good commit message.
I could point to iproute2 patch or cutnpaste the novel i wrote
there.

cheers,
