Well, not doing this removal is even safer, if we know that it is
not hurting in the -rc code.  It would be better than breaking our
tests without knowing ;-)  I am not upset that the patch broke the
test, by the way.  Compared to things silently breaking without
surfacing, a loud breakage in tests is a much easier thing to
handle.

My test run with the attached just finished, so that's what I am
going to queue tentatively on top.

Thanks.
