The same is true for all patches from @gnat.com addresses. The main
error I made was to try to merge ACT->FSF without first doing FSF->ACT.
I tried to go through the entire diff and make sure no changes were
undone,
but I missed some cases. I will not make this mistake again.
Nathanael, thank you for your help.
