Well, I should have dug this myself a bit more [*1*] before hitting
[SEND].  This change is required because map() no longer returns a
list.  So the bullet item in the proposed commit log message in my
earlier message should be updated to say that instead--it was unclear
to me so I phrased as if it was a mere preference, but it actually
is a required change.


[Footnote]

*1* Well, it would have been ideal if the original patch had enough
    information from the beginning to make this kind of "digging"
    unnecessary ;-)
