Yes, Richard did provide a reviewed-by tag on the v1 patch, but v2 has
enough changes that I don't think we can reasonably carry that forward;
of course Richard re-review this iteration and provide a new tag.  I'm
going to remove it for now.

Al never provided an explicit reviewed-by tag; simply commenting on a
patch is not the same as providing a 'Reviewed-by', the reviewer will
provide an explicit 'Reviewed-by' tag in their email.  I'm going to
remove Al's tag too.

Other than those issues, I think this looks much better than v1, I'm
going to merge this into audit/dev now, thanks!
