I made the patch slightly different:

Does this also work for you?  If not, I think the patch should be 
extended to include your version, rather than going with the way you did it.

By the way, please provide patches in unified diff format next time, and 
be sure to get the order correct.  Yours appeared to be some other type 
of context diff, and was reversed.
