Probably yes.  I was waiting a few weeks to make sure this didn't cause
any problems in EC2 before I suggested making the change elsewhere.

(Also, I have a policy of not touching non-EC2 cloud code simply because
I have lots of Amazon NDAs and don't want to accidentally leak something.
But there are other developers who can make this change.)
