Oh my, does this mean we have been shipping non-free code all this time?

I have mixed feelings about the 3643-line patch.  On the one hand it is
great to adjust the documentation to match, OTOH it looks non-trivial to
maintain.  It also takes a good second place in the "longest patch
contest".

However since you already did the work, and this is a rather serious
issue, I went along and committed the patch.  Thank you very much!

As you've been delivering a steady stream of high-quality patches I
assume you'll be around for a while to maintain it.  :-)
