Sorry for the delay. You can usually reach me faster at
iant@google.com, per the ChangeLog entry. I had already looked at the
patch and made the same comment that Michael did: to use the enum
constants rather than the casts. I probably could have said that more
clearly. My apologies.

It's not really feasible for me to bootstrap every primary and
secondary platform. In any case I do not think such a requirement is
appropriate for stage 1. I am certainly committed to fixing any
problem as soon as it is brought to my attention; in this case there
was already a patch, and I already reviewed it, so I didn't feel that
it was necessary for me to do anything further.
