By and large we don't expect core patches to worry about fixing the ecpg
grammar. Right now the situation is that Michael Meskes makes a manual
cleanup pass every so often :-(. I would like to see that get automated
sooner rather than later, but in the near term it is not the
responsibility of core-patch authors to update ecpg.
