Whoops.  You're right.  Sorry about that.

In any case, you'd made a convert of me and when I was working on the 
diff fix recently suggested by Paul Edwards, I cam across what I thought 
was a different case of the initializations with two lines of comments 
and tidied exactly as you did in this patch, so it's already on stable 
and should be checked into feature as soon as my `make check' finishes 
running on my merged workspace.

Thanks and sorry about that.  I'll try not to do it again.  :)

Derek
