I feel like the SubmittingPatches guidelines on verb tenses and not
saying "this patch" or "I" has got everyone so worried that it's like
playing Taboo.  Do you mean that the struct moved before or after we
aply *this patch*?

I can't understand the point of this patch at all.  Is it a fix or a
clean up?  If I had to guess from the subjec, I would say it's a
performance improvement but I don't know.
