Ah ha, yes you did, and I missed it.  Sorry about that.  I checked the
Makefiles, didn't see any checks, and wrongly assumed they were not
there.

Looking quickly at the check it seems reasonable, if I notice any
problems when testing I'll let you know.

Hmm, that's not good.  FWIW, the original patch obviously made it, but
yes I'm not seeing your response in the list archives.  Did you get
any sort of majordomo hate mail back on your posts, or is is just
silently dropping your messages?
