Thanks for spotting this.  You're right that it's a bug.  I've applied
your patch (although really I think this whole area is pretty grotty
and could do with substantial rework).

Two comments though about the formatting of your patch:

  * It didn't apply cleanly because it had different whitespace to
   that in the actual code.  Your mailer must have done something to

There must be something wrong when I did the paste.

   it I think.  Best practice seems to be (if you can't make your
   mailer reliably not mangle the body of the message) to provide each
   patch _both_ as an attachment (for application) _and_ by including
   it in the body (for readable review).

Thanks for the advice. I'll attach the patch also next time.

  * You forgot the Signed-off-By line, by which you would certify that

I added the signed-off-by line at the bottom!:)

Thanks,

   the code copyright and so forth status was appropriate (according
   to the Developer's Certificate of Origin).  I applied your patch
   anyway because it's a one-line change (which most authorities think
   makes it too small for copyright to apply) but you should make sure
   to appropriately certify your code in future.
