Excellent, thank you.

That one is a little tougher. When I read Chet's message, I thought
it was a little ambiguous, but the way I read it was that he was
only acknowledging the receipt of the report and patch, so he hadn't
had a chance to review and apply it. What I would do is ask him
if he could let us know when it is reviewed and (hopefully) applied.

If he forgets, that's not a huge deal, but we basically expose
ourselves to facing that same issue again at the next readline
upgrade. We could be even more proactive, but I don't think it
would be worth the effort.
