For the record, and from memory, there were three patches.
One from you which broke my tree.
One from Randy which I merged after several days of you not responding to our bug reports.
One which I typed in by hand based upon your lackadaisical, several-month-late English-language description of what I needed to do to fix it. As we can see, it didn't work.
I wish Jeff hadn't merged the thing after I dropped it - I sat on it for months waiting in exhasperation for you to actually support your own work and you never did.
Can we just revert it now?
