The Signed-off-by is not so much for _you_ as for the people who _use_
what you contributed, so that they can always say "but Twiinz signed off
on it, he said that he will not sue my $ss off later, like this Darl
b$stard".
So yes, I do worry.
It is not about him suing us, but more about "He certified that he did not
steal it from anywhere else", iow, other people suing us for what he did.
And we should worry.
In this case it is a very trivial patch.
Yeah, I realized that I should have added that after sending the message.
I'd rather not to see a patch without S-o-b than with a S-o-b with a
phoney name, though.
