I just realized you added "Reported-by: Tom Lane" to the commit message
of this change (f722dd32de49), which seems at odds with the idea of this
being someone with limited English ability, and frankly quite hilarious.

(I also noticed that you add blank lines between each of the trailer
lines in the commit message, which is at odds with what everybody else
does, both in Postgres and elsewhere.)
