Check these two functions again, wonder whether this is a common usage
to show support of a feature. I don't remember where we do like this. We
usually define a global variable to mark it? Anyway, it works. See if
other people have comments, I could be ignorant.

Other than this tiny concern, this patch looks good to me:
