Well, if that's not what we're arguing about, then what the heck are
we arguing about?

All we need to do to resolve this issue is have Tom commit his patch.
The set of people who are objecting to that is either {} or {Stephen
Frost}.  Even if it's the latter, we should just proceed, because
there are clearly enough votes in favor of the patch to proceed,
including 2 from RMT members, and if it's the former, we should
DEFINITELY proceed.
