Patches posted at -rc6 right before the last release? Come on! Gustavo,
we always spend more time for you than for other contributors because we
do not trust your changes. We could apply them blindly but we don't do
that for other (worthy) contributions, so why shall we do it for you?

I think you could at least flag these changes as "automatic and
unverified" in the commit log so that when git blaming, people could
know that the additional explicit /* fallthrough */ comment might be
wrong and was just added in order to limit the number of warnings when
enabling the extra GCC warning.

It is common practice for contributors to understand what they
are doing before submitting a change and this is something that you
clearly don't try to do.


Thanks,
Miquèl
