I'll probably apply my tiny fix, for the record, then merge your patch,
with two tweaks to get past "make syntax-check":

    $ make syntax-check
    src/expr.c:38:#include "inttostr.h"
    src/expr.c:43:#include "verify.h"
    maint.mk: the above are already included via system.h
    make: *** [sc_system_h_headers] Error 1

Thanks again!
