Please always post complete patches. Are you worried about file size
when attaching a patch?

It was not a +1. Please note the following email:

If you don't have time to read the emails, please read the subject lines
at least. I know you weren't here for a long time so it is especially
difficult, but it would be helpful if you could take the 5 seconds for
each email thread to read the subjects.

Even despite that email, consider that I wrote "a quick look at this
patch". This means I did not even read your patch in-depth.

When I say that "the ACM tests all pass now", that does not mean
anything more than "the ACM tests all pass now". Tests are useful for
telling us when something is likely wrong, but they cannot tell us that
something is necessarily right. I think only an in-depth code review can
tell us that.

I do appreciate your work on this issue.

Scott
