However, since that was obviously the concern - and a reasonable one,
since you never phrased your patch in such a way as to say the copies
were the same - then it behooves you to say that there are no changes.
Your message said nothing about acknowledging the copy of the code
already in src. In fact, I remember you saying it actually came from
an internal tree. The reason for my concern should be obvious.
