You're right.  It just wasn't very clear from your original post what
the "typo" was.  I plead guilty of missing it too, because I only gave a
quick glance at the text of the post.  Some times, I think that reading
diff output for too long has damaged my reading skills!

I've committed a fix for the nit.  You're not picky :-)
