"patch noise" does not mean the volume of the list traffic.  It is
the number of pointless changes in the history of the project, and
accepting this patch would _encourage_ similar pointless changes,
i.e. "patch noise".

IMO, instead of writing this you could have just accepted the patch, 
reducing the patch noise ;-)

IMO, this is such a minor thing that once it _is_ in the tree, it's
not really worth the patch noise to go and fix it up.
