Hi Chris,

you're the original author of the code touched by this patch. Is the
second -q option really a simple copy-and-paste of the first or am I
overlooking something here? I'd like to confirm this as, in retrospect,
I feel a bit uncertain about the hasty claim in the log message.

Kind regards,
   Fabian
