Julia already has a patch set to cleanup all the existing users
(not published yet, though).

Apart from that, and this is more important, the patch in question
looks to me as 100% copy paste of a patch by Julia Lawall.

And no, Salah, it's not "Signed-off-by: Salah Triki <salah.triki at acm.org>".

For the record, this is the second, let's say strange, patch from Salah
that I see today.
