No, just the usual thing - everyone was probably waiting for someone
else to react, then they forgot.  Gently reminding, as you did, was the
right thing to do.  Committed to trunk[1] and to the 6.0 branch.

A general thing (not highly relevant for these two lines, but for other
people reading too) - on the whole we are happy to carry code in the
source which we do not build ourselves as long as it doesn't have a
negative impact (including readability) on our own code.  But of course
we don't test it, so the onus is on whoever uses it to keep it working,
and to field complaints if it doesn't.

Regards
Michael
