right?

I've merged it locally, but would like to have some detailed set of
steps on how to test this, so that I can add it to a "Committer testing"
section in the cset commit log and probably add it to my local set of
regression tests.

Who originally reported this? Joe? Also can someone provide a Tested-by:
in addition to mine when I get this detailed set of steps to test?

Thanks,
