This commit message sounds like we don't actually understand the problem
being fixed here.

I'd like to investigate this more. Perhaps with a test case?

Otherwise, the patches up to this point in the thread have all either
been pushed or I've asked for some additional information (perhaps
that's just this patch and the "old style fcc dirs" patch?).

I'll continue to work through my patch queue as contained in email
messages. I'm finding it easier to do that (and just piping the patches
I like to "git am") as opposed to working through a release-candidate
branch in git, (and having to keep rebasing/postponing it after I reject
some patch in the series).

I'm actually a bit surprised to see myself preferring patches in
email. When Linus first wrote git, I couldn't understand why the Linux
community kept to such a consistent culture of sending patches via
email. It seemed so backwards to do these awkward machinations (git
format-patch, git send-email, SMTP, MUA, git am), and risk all the
problems of email clients corrupting patches, etc.—especially when git
has such clean mechanisms for reliably moving patches around (git push,
git pull).

Call me converted. Email really is the right way to do collaborative
code development.
