And looks like we need this for v3.18-rc since it does fix the
regression.

A minor nit: you add a few new multi-line comment blocks which should
have a new empty line before them, but currently they're right up
against the previous code.  Please add a blank line for separation and
to be consisitent with the rest of the file.

Thanks,
