Unfortunately while this was a simple enough change to make (a few 'git 
mv' commands and a handful of actual text changes), it ballooned the 
size of the diff for patch 5 to the point that vger bounced it for 
exceeding the 100K message-size limit.  As far as I can tell it looks 
like it went through elsewhere, but does leave a bit of a gap in the 
public list archives -- please let me know if there's anything I should 
try in terms of re-sending it.  (The only combination of 'git 
format-patch' flags I've been able to find that gets it back down to 
approximately its previous size is '-B -D', which isn't so useful for 
actually applying.)

I'm not sure how critical a limit that 100K is, or if it's something we 
might consider raising a bit?
