I've attached the Ubuntu patch for the same issue; it's been deployed
for some time and I think it's largely a cleaner approach than fixing it
up post-facto as your patch does. However, I tend to agree with Steve
that doing that at the last minute is risky; we had a fair few little
bits and pieces around the distribution to fix up, IIRC.
