Two points I think I should mention:
1) Commit log entries should contain a concise description of the change
that was made; you've been reminded of this previously. The above
describes how the change took place without saying what was changed, nor
which purpose for. Referring to the gnats database isn't good enough a
substitute.
2) This looks like a candidate for a vendor-branch import.
