There is only one source arg, it is saying deref in regards to that. The point is to report to the user that the source has not simply changed, but disappeared entirely.

Perhaps '^*nosrc' is much better than *deref or *deleting. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
