  Hi Matt,

  I stumbled over the same error...
But didn't get the time to fix it myself.

  Such kind of small fixes that restore a successful
compilation broken by a commit can be considered as obvious fixes.

  I would have committed the change as such and
would have simply sent the patch after committing with [OBVIOUS] in front.

  So, this means that I can also give you 
an approval for that obvious change!

Pierre Muller
