And the 4th heavy-weight steps in, and the grand total is now well past
10000 commits.

Are you saying that it's fair???

Right. That's one opinion. And it seems that many long time contributors agree
that this is the case. So it must be the only acceptable opinion. Or?

In my book coding-style issues is about taste, i.e. if you use spaces or tabs
to indent, and if and when you add a new-line before {. Etc. This fix is about
directly misleading code that noone writes on purpose. Clearly a bug in my
book, and not some meager "style" issue.

You need to read that carefully. Do you see that "e.g." part? This quote states
*one* example of how you can find a bug. It's not some exhaustive list and thus
"proves" nothing what-so-ever.

Besides, reading the git biscet manual reveals that

"In fact, git bisect can be used to find the commit that changed any property
 of your project"

So, if we are being ridiculous, thanks for the support! Below is the proof that
I found a really horrible *bisectable* bug! Looks like a fixes-tag was warranted
after all!!!1!

On a more serious note I challenge you to find anything in Documentation/ that
tells me, without ambiguity, that the patch in question is *not* fixing a bug,
because your quote is clearly not it.

I'm *only* saying that it is not always so damn easy to categorize issues, and
that a mis-step does not warrant ridicule.

Cheers,
Peter
