My apologies, I will endeavour to be more clear next time I give consensus
for a patch.

If I or Wilco missed something the next step is to respond to the original
email with a detailed response about what is missing. Wilco has responded
to the question about isnormal, please respond to his answer and take it
from there to see if we need to change the test.

If at all possible please provide actionable patches that show how you
think the implementation should be.

Cheers,
Carlos.
