Hmm, I do not see how it happened, either. It is not like I was
offline (I can see I was involved in other threads from the same
timeframe). Perhaps it was lost in the noise.
Thanks for following up.

From even my limited time as acting maintainer, I know it is easy for
things to occasionally fall through the cracks for no real reason. We
rely on submitters to be invested enough in their patch series to give a
gentle prod in such cases. However, I sometimes churn out little patches
like this at such a rate that _I_ forget about them, too. :)
I do keep them in my tree, but I have so many half-finished and failed
experiments that they get lost in the noise. I should do a better job of
periodically reviewing and reposting or discarding my personal topics (I
have 65 right now!).
