OK; I've now pushed it to Emacs 29.

This sort of change can be somewhat ticklish, as it depends on output
from external programs, and it's hard to get full test coverage of that.
So I'd rather just put it on master.

Justin, this change was small enough to apply without assigning
copyright to the FSF, but for future patches you want to submit, it
might make sense to get the paperwork started now, so that subsequent
patches can be applied speedily. Would you be willing to sign such
paperwork?
