Actually I'm wrong about this, as the patch adds a new abstract method
to Member, so VMs without the updates could not be compiled.

I hate to check stuff in and break the VMs, since it usually means a
few days of shipping patches around until everything is updated.  I
suppose I could send out the patch, wait a couple days, and then check
it in.
