This is the second time we've had this kind of discussion. However, you did not reply to my comments last time[1]. I will say them again for the record. There are both direct and indirect benefits here. The direct benefit is that it's one less patch I have to review going onto trunk. The indirect benefit is that we get the community into the habit and discipline of setting aside trivial changes to focus on stabilizing trunk. Does that make sense? I don't mind if this patch gets checked into trunk, but please work with David to ensure that it goes in without error. Cheers, Carlos. [1] http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2012-06/msg00267.html
