Fixed, thanks.  I will soon merge the patch into maint.  As for your
objections to the wording used in some of the documentation changes
(snipped here, to which I have replied in another mail), they can be
worked out further on-list, and if a consensus is reached, we can
adjust the documentation with follow-up patches without problem.

Thanks,
  Stefano
