Well, yeah, I did mention that the patch was written at your suggestion,
and there aren't that many options in which that patch can be written.
I didn't look at your trees, and I made that change as part of a much
larger effort which involves phylink, which I will email you separately
about.

I will gladly drop my ownership on the first patch and ask Luo Jie to
pick your version instead, if this is what you're implying from the 2
word reply.
