Hi Jan,

I finally got around to looking at your patches (not much to do on a 12
hour layover :-p).

Just a preference, but I would rather this still explicitly show the
NULL. The second value is meaningless with the change below. Thus, I'm
going to nuke these two hunks and just add the last one, which should
still work for you.

If not, let me know, or just tell me this weekend ;-) (I wont be
pushing this to my main server till I get back anyway)
