Fair enough.  The obvious fix rule is still a good one.

In that case saying "obvious fix; spinning tests now" seems like a
good idea.

The point of all this is to inspire our mutual confidence in
one-another, to force us to remember to test, and to help understand
what might be the problem when something does go wrong.  (Hmm, I know
this worked on Alpha, so I wonder what's different on SPARC?  Oh, I
know, it's that SPARC has register windows, and that means that ...)

Thanks,
