Hi Chris,

I'm sorry it's taken such a long time to respond to this patch. We
won't be able to make any more changes to the 3.6 series and would
prefer to send patches upstream for 3.8 if we get any.

Do you have such a patch for 3.8? If so feel free to send it in reply
to this message and I'll forward it upstream if you haven't already.

Otherwise, I will plan to close this bug.

Best wishes,
Dominic.
