Hmm. While both do look correct, and it is a no-brainer to take
this (corrected) patch, I am not sure how much we care about walkers
these days.
As to the hunk to commit.c that was dropped in this round, the only
caller of print_commit_list() is bisect.c, and it passes "%s\n" to
format_cur and format_last, it seems, so that suggests a more
obvious direction for cleaning things up, I would say.
