 Don't ask me why this email took 10 months to be delivered into
 gnats... but now that it has been, for the record:
 
 pullup-7 #868 was done about a week after I filed it.
 
 pullup-6 #1310 was applied last November and then reverted because it
 broke the build; for some reason even though I filed the pullup I
 didn't find out about this (or possibly I got the email and didn't
 remember I'd had anything to do with it) so nothing's been done about
 fixing the patches.
 
 I will put it on my list but if someone else feels like attending to
 it that will probably get it done faster.
