backport r663342 from trunk
-----------
Such commit messages aren't legible when comparing a branch to trunk,
please
repeat the purpose of the commit in the log message for the backport!
There is an IMHO pretty cool script from Joe Orton that is very helpful
for backporting trunk revisions. It creates a file with all the original
commit messages that could be used as commit message for the backport
plus it adds the numbers of the revisions that get backported. It
can be found here:
