I just re-read what I wrote...

Email is a lousy medium for conveying emotion.  I apologize for sounding
a bit too harsh, and want to thank you for taking the time to report an
issue.  More importantly, thanks for posting a patch!  Too many people
report issues without any further effort.  Even if we end up going with
a slightly different patch, the fact that you showed initiative is a
positive thing, and I was wrong for forgetting to express appreciation,
with a net result of conveying the wrong tone in my first reply.  Please
continue to contribute, and don't use my (poor) behavior as an excuse to
run away.
