I don't recall what happened here.  I imagine I tried to apply the patch 
but it didn't work locally, and I mis-edited this.  Apologies.

Juri,

That's always what I try to do, especially if the patch matches current 
coding style and is clearly understandable by me.  I'm sure you realize 
that the majority of the patches that get submitted are applied directly 
without difficulty.

As I'm also sure you realize, I'm ultimately responsible for this code, so 
I need to understand the problem and the proposed solution.  If I don't, I 
must either reject the request until I do, or make an attempt at a better 
solution.  Sometimes, I realize, that doesn't work out.  It's unfortunate 
when that's the case, but please don't leap to the conclusion that there's 
malice or incompetence in play here.

So rather than being frustrated, help me out here: What's the new issue 
with #187?

I understand, but I'm effectively a volunteer here.  Support will get 
everyone further than frustration.
