I assume most people use the pretest version, not the emacs-24 branch
version.  If I'm right, then changes on the branch will not get tested
too much.

That said, I have no objections committing sooner.  Just let me run
with it for a while, since until now this change was tested on a
single machine which runs Windows 7.  It wasn't tested on XP and other
users of Windows 7 didn't suffer from the original problem at all.
I'd like to have a bit more confidence before installing.
