I am surprised to see how much effort is being expended on this, and
how tiringly verbose it is.  This is like putting a long-winded
ChangeLog message together for every spelling correction in a comment,
then posting the patch, then discussing it for a while to debate
English versus American spellings.  Process rigidity run amok!
