I can deal with any of the above, but with the goal of keeping the
list archive most useful for later readers, I would imagine that it
would be best if such a follow-up fix were made against the specific
step (if there is such a single step) that introduced an issue (in
other words, where you would have squashed your fix into, if it were
under your control to redo the series).  If there is no such single
step and the fix applies to the whole series in general, a response
to its cover letter would also do, I would think.

Thanks.
