Thanks, but this patch still doesn't apply.  The problem is that the
white spaces are wrong.  Did your mailer convert TABs to spaces or is
that a copy/paste problem?

To avoid that problem, I suggest to commit your patch to a local
branch, create a patch file using `git format-patch' and attach it
to your mail.  That should work all the time (and allows the lazy
maintainer to apply the patch with a simple `git am' call ;))

Never mind that for this patch.  I applied it manually.


Thanks,
Corinna
