First I commend you on actually making a proper changelog for a patch.
 The only issue I have is that the changelog provides not actual
changes.  Saying you reacted to comments does not summarize what the
actual changes were.  I purposely did not review the earlier versions
because by the time I went to do a review, there was another version
already submitted.  So your changelog requires that users look at all
the previous emails to actually see what Alex and Mark requested in
changes.

I am telling you this for future patches, it will not impact these
patches, just really disappointing.  I will take the extra time to
track down all the previous emails and the changes requested to ensure
you made all the changes that were requested of you. :-(  This will
just delay when I apply the patches for testing.
