unless things are on fire (which i don't think this was), i don't
generally clamor for 0-day fixes.  if we can find a better fix in
a day or so, then i'm happy for that.  i dislike repos with history
that is just a constant stream of land, revert, land, revert, land.

not that i'm saying your revert was wrong ... just airing my
general personal preferences.
