This is  [PATCH 1/1] and when I wrote the mail it was not sorted in
threaded form - I didn't see a cover letter for this specific patch.
Might also be because some mails go to my ddn address and some to 
my own one. I use the DDN address for patches to give DDN credits 
for the work, but fastmail provides so much better filtering - I
prefer my private address for CCs.

So asked because I was confused about this [1/1] - it made it look
like it is ready.

Thanks,
Bernd
