Thanks.  I tried to install this, but the patch doesn't apply.  So
please resubmit so it applies to the current master branch.

While at that, please accompany the patch with a commit log message
per our coding standards: it should be a ChangeLog-style list of new
and modified functions, variables and manual nodes, each one with a
short description of the change you made there.  See CONTRIBUTE for
the description of our conventions (search for "ChangeLog") and of
useful Emacs commands that will help you format the log message
according to the conventions.
