[ shrug... ] Andrew had unilaterally removed me as committer from that
patch back in January or so, so it dropped way down my priority list.
I'm willing to move it back up now, but I could do without people
expressing a sense of entitlement to my time. In any case, Andres is
currently the committer of record, and if he decides to push it in the
next 24 hours, I'm not doing anything more to stand in his way than
Robert already did.
