Well, her name was there already for a later commit that was not
backpatched, so I just moved her name earlier.  The fact that her name
was moved earlier because of something that was backpatched is
inconsistent, but I don't know enough about the work that went into the
item to comment on that.  I will need someone to tell me, of the commits
that only appear in PG 13, what should be the name order.
