Hmm, this topic has been in next since April 15th. It is preferrable to fix things with incremental updates (the reasoning being that while in 'seen' the issues are "mistakes by the author alone", which may not necessarily benefit others to learn from, but what is in 'next' are supposed to have got enough review exposure, so any mistakes found are both of the author and reviewers, i.e. trickier than what is found before it hits 'next' and are more worth documenting with incremental "oops that was wrong for such and such reason, which even our reviews missed, and here is a fix"). But I'll have to go offline for a while soon, so let's make an exception, revert the merge of the previous round out of 'next', and queue this in 'seen'. Thanks.
