I forgot about that. And similar for the next patch. But how do you
propose that I attribute the reporters and CoverityScan? Crap, it
would have been so much easier if the series was just pulled they
way I expected it...

Greg, how do you want to play this? Can you perhaps update the fixes
tag here and in 12/12 if/when you apply the series?

Cheers,
