I wrote and used the patch once, as I wanted to know
which program in a lengthy multiple-program test suite
was triggering the problem. That made it easier coming
up with a shortened test that would replicate the problem.

However I only needed it that one time so this patch can
be considered to be exceptionally optional :)
