Thanks for the heads up :)

If Julien does not notice my email in a couple of days I'll resubmit with
the catchy [PATCH] tag you suggested.

Also in case this should be the norm for submitting patches I attach a patch
to PATCH to add [PATCH] in the subject (if your head hurts after reading the
sentence, observe that this is intended).

Best,

Alex
