Message-ID: <20100726200111.3A695400DD@magilla.sf.frob.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: Andreas Schwab's message of  Monday, 26 July 2010 16:37:45 +0200 <m3zkxez4ue.fsf@hase.home>

I would s/a value/values/ since there is one value for alloc and one value
for free, both based on the perturb byte.  I think it should also say
"... depending on the low-order byte of this value," so nobody can think
that passing in more than 8 bits has any effect.  With those tweaks, it's
fine to commit it.

Thanks,
Roland
