I don't have a preference.
The updated patch looks good except for one problem: the description
still says "This is a reimplementation for Unix". Here, we are working
on GNU, which stands for "GNU's Not Unix". UNIX is a trademark, and
does not apply to our system. If you want to say something like this,
please use the name "POSIX" instead. If that's too narrow, then perhaps
it is better to remove this statement entirely.
