Subject: Formal apology.

I would like to formally apologize for my comments regarding the late
Leonard Zubkoff. I had no idea of his death, and in light of this, my
remarks were totally inappropriate.

I am very sorry.

Would something like the following patch be OK in order to avoid such an
embarrissing mistake in the future? (against 2.6.7)
