Hello,
So I did all the recommended changes (including cleaning up my
unintended mess of new patches) that were commented in the code in the
file "impastpl.cxx" but Jenkins is still giving me a build

Here's what you should do:
1. Pick up a rubber duck [1] (an unsuspecting friend or relative will do

2. Explain to it in detail what you were doing and why
3. If there is no eureka moment, post the same information to the list
