Sorry, yes, the trivial fix has been done for a while. There is one
outstanding feedback on the patch: an update to one of the comments
suggested by Tomas. I got distracted by trying to repro and fix a bug
from the section "live issues affecting stable branches". I will
update this BHS patch by tonight and commit it once Tomas has a chance
to +1.

Thanks,
Melanie
