Yeah there was maybe my non-US bias involved. 

We did get some report on it, but I discarded that because I saw the change as 
obvious cleanup (on the same level as the regular header fixing, "well it 
breaks something but we'll have to do it one day").

Then again, in a wider sense from that perspective probably "going metric" 
would also be a valid bug fix... :D

Anyway, looking forward to 2.32 and thanks for your work!
