Sorry, I somehow missed that.

Thanks a lot for the additional testing! I don't think we need another
test on 3400G; after all, the actual measurement code didn't change.

Everyone: I'll be happy to add Tested-by: tags with your name and e-mail
address to the series, but you'll have to send it to me. I appreciate
all your testing and would like to acknowledge it, but I can not add
Tested-by: tags (or any other tags, for that matter) on my own.

Thanks,
