Hi Joe,

Apologies for my off tone. But I think we got tangled somewhere?

You said "It isn't necessary".

You maintain that grepping the source to find out if you'd broken
something "isn't necessary"?

git history shows me you've done lots of these cleanups. I'm pretty
sure that's not what you meant.

But as maintainer, it's annoying that I had to check myself. I don't
have personal experience in how diligent you are. If you'd just
mentioned it, it would have saved me a few minutes and streamlined my
workflow immensely.

Providing assurance makes me a happy maintainer. So I modified it
because it sets a clear example for others.

I hope that clarifies,
Rusty.
