Thank you!  Applied.

[not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but this might well
 help others, too... ]

BTW, please look at the guidelines in HACKING where it requests
that you send the output of "git format-patch --stdout ..." and
the "Commit log requirements" section.

For example, if your patch had looked like this,
I could have applied it directly with a simple "git am MSG"
rather than having to edit the summary line to make it short
enough and to adjust the indentation in the log message.
