Hi,

Thanks for patch. But when sending cleanup patches like this please make
sure that you a) understand what the code does and how your change affects
it and b) as a bare minimum of testing perform a compile test, if possible
also do functional testing.

The patch as it is, is neither semantically nor syntactically correct. As an
exercise please make sure you understand why.

Same for the second patch.
