Patch (after rebasing to 5a735b0) attached. I hope it works.

Git newbie question:

Making the changes in the maint version of these 4 files manually was a bit of a pain. What's the right way of porting changes from one branch to another? I am curious how the changes will be ported from the maint branch to the master branch. What git command should I be looking at to do this in future? (because I always use the master branch and if I need to submit a patch in future, I would need to switch to maint branch and port changes from my master.

Thanks.

Please make the patch against the maint branch (currently 5a735b0b8)
rather than master. Also, you don't need to bother configuring git
send-email; an attachment with the output of git format-patch is OK too.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll update the link.
