Hi Justin,

thanks for reporting, I swear this is not a trick to cheat on the bug-rate ;)

That's strange, I just tried a M-x report-emacs-bug on the same commit
on a emacs -Q session and it just works for me.

I'm Ccing Jim so maybe he can try to reproduce on apple-darwin.

That's odd AFAIK these are not necessary (and if they are we should
probably merge them).

Thanks
