Yes, it's clearly on the pervasive side, so if you could hold on to it until after the release, it would be appreciated. > Since Chong recently installed into the trunk a patch (bzr 107813) > that affects many more files than the integer-overflow patch, perhaps > the pervasive-change restriction doesn't simply mean "a change that > affects a lot of files". His changes also count as pervasive in my book, indeed, so I'd have preferred to wait until after the release to install it. Oh well! Stefan
