is still missing. Would be good to have these fixes backported, since
the original change landed in 7.3. If you used b4 trailers -u and it
didn't add the Cc tag after my message that would confirm my suspicion
that b4 won't pick up that tag. :/

Bjorn might forget to add these, so it's likely easiest and most
reliable if you resend again with the tag added in both patches.

Thanks for fixing all the nitpicks!
Stephan
