(I sound so grumpy. Let me try again.)

Thank you, Anatoly, for bothering to contribute your changes back to the 
community.

Your main changes look good and well commented. I like them and I've committed 
them.

It always makes it easier and thus more likely that someone will commit your 
patch if you supply a log message even for a simple change, but in this case I 
wrote one. (Afterwards, I saw that in GitHub you have a series of log messages 
for the changes that made up this patch,  but even if I'd seen them earlier I 
would still have needed to combine them into a single Subversion-style message.)

It's also best to avoid unrelated changes in the same patch. In this case, I 
stripped out the changes that seemed to be unrelated. Apologies if I missed 
something important.

Thanks again.
