Okay, let's be clear about "follow-on" fixes.  Please don't re-use a bugid
for a commit comment unless it's a quick, very small change that generally
comes within a few hours of the original putback.  If you have to summarize
the change in four points, it's not a follow-up fix, it needs a new bug.

Follow-up fixes *must* have their essence summarized in two or three words
attached to the end of the synopsis, in parens.  "(follow-on)" doesn't
explain what the change is, so it's not acceptable.  Examples of reasonable
follow-up fixes might include:

  - fix lint
  - fix build
  - fix typo
  - add missing file

if folks don't get the hang of this, I'm going to ask that if you want to
commit a fix as a follow-up fix, you ask me first.

Thanks,
Danek
