Err, I'm not sure I quite follow you. You're worried about the 2 line
offset? That's nothing to worry about. It happens all the time, and is
not a problem at all. Patches with offsets still apply OK. I probably
have an additional patch to the same file in my tree, and that's about
it.

The metaphor is probably slightly exaggerated, initialization might be
a little slower than it should, but after that the remaining bug should
have no effect.

False friends... The above translates to "it's a joke to work with you"
when you meant - I guess and hope - "it's pleasant to work with you" ;)

But thanks anyway :)
