As you had given (conditiomal) approval for the first patch, I thought it
would be safe to send a second.  Anyway I see now that I shouldn't have
confused the issue.  For some changes, like the one above, I think you
could just look at the ChangeLog entry.

I'm not sure where this is leading because at some stage I will want to commit
the parts that you have already seen and approved.  It would be easier for me
to commit those now and submit a patch for the new parts, so that there is no
more confusion about what you are approving.  Would that be OK?
