    Should the marked line simply be deleted?  If not, what correction is

    Hmm, wow.  My first thought was that it should just say
    "reconstructing" rather than "reconstruct", but on further reading I
    think you might have the right idea.

    The current text of the comment dates to commit 177c56d60, and looking at
    that commit makes it pretty clear that the line I'm complaining of
    belonged to the previous text; it evidently just missed getting deleted.
