Not to pick on this commit, but recently there have been several commits where the log msg addressed _why_ the commit was done but never described _what_ was changed. This is not helpful; someone coming along later with only CVS for reference must do a diff to even guess what the change does. Good commit msgs give a reader an understanding of the reason and content of a change. The above commit msg is more appropriate as followup mail to the actual commit (so it's not even included in CVS). Sam
