It's interesting how many old bugzilla issues are still open though they're done

The whole thing wasn't so much about the patch ones, I just found them  
cause I searched for issues with patches.
My point was that some entries are damn old and sometimes it's ridiculous  
that they are still open (e.g. the first one about the makefiles).


Some patches are also rather small, just like this one:

Just tried it out, works great.
