Pushed as 5f547a5c425cc99553ea713703e09a8db9f3c38b with the suggested
comma, and a brief comment explaining what the magic number "151" was

That should bright all the patches into compliance with lint as far as
file length goes, and should work with the ustar format for the "make
dist" produced tarballs.

Don't get too crazy with the extra ~50 characters!

live well,
