Hi Ricardo! Thank you for your quick reply!
I submitted the patch via e-mail attachment. It was recently said on the mailing list, that it should not matter, or even be more reliable, when submitting it as an attachment. However, as I see mostly patches being submitted in the e-mail body, perhaps something automated does not work correctly with patches submitted as attachment? Wildly guessing around here : ) Anyway, thank you for looking at the patch. I thought I had written the patch commit message answering all questions on https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Change-Logs.html#Change-Logs <https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Change-Logs.html#Change-Logs>. However, perhaps I should have checked the linked pages there, especially https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Style-of-Change-Logs.html#Style-of-Change-Logs <https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Style-of-Change-Logs.html#Style-of-Change-Logs>? Or is it something else, that can be done in a better way about the commit message?
