I don't know the official party line on stuff like this.   I don't claim
to understand the code in question so I certainly shouldn't be credited
for writing it.   So that drops my name from the list of candidates.  There
are other small "cut and paste" changes that go in that list the name of 
the person doing the testing/integration/validation work and not the name
of the original creator, so prior art would indicate your name should
go on it.

I defer to Richard.
