Yeah, yeah. Why should I test against PRE and then test it one more time
against HEAD. IMHO, this should be generated against HEAD since it is
supposed to go there. Development occurs on HEAD not somewhere else.

I made it clear that I fixed the build locally - it was not a problem.
Still, it would be much better if you indicated in your post that the
target of the patch is the PRE branch and not HEAD. I guess that other
people willing to test your patch can get confused too. It is not very
inspiring to test a patch that doesn't compile.
