Joe, so did you deactivate checking Fixes: at some point? We can always check if it makes locally sense; that still does not avoid the situation when a Fixes to an individual local tree and later during integration hashes change, but it does sanity-checking on Fixes tags for the hashes and descriptions that are stable.
