Indeed. Fixed this in v4.

Yeah. I had some extra information in my local commit footer, to make 
sure I remember add the correct Cc in the outgoing mail. I didn't 
intend to remove the Reported-by trailer (and in v4 I see that I 
forgot to trim it at all; so much for posting stuff late in the 
evening, especially just after pushing a localization update).

Right. I need to remember to disable that when posting patches. I 
haven't come around to trying to get the Git built-in tools for sending 
patches, as the last patch I submitted this way was in 2009, two mail 
hosts ago. It oughtn't have been corrupted by that as it was just an 
import of the git format-patch output file, and...

...it comes out just fine (as a v3.5 patch, as my v4 also changed the 
command-line options, which we should not).

It was not you, it was me trimming the posted patch a little bit too 
much.
