It seems that for the past few days, people were having too much
fun bashing how broken MacOS X is, and the real work has stalled
in the meantime.  Well, not really stalled but they certainly
made the patches and discussions harder to find in the list
archive.

But that's Ok.  You cannot win every battle.

Now the lack of unsetenv can be autodetected, and coloring
breakage of --color-words has been fixed.  We have also managed
to catch a real breakage in fast-import, but somebody seems to
have managed to bash OS X even in that thread ;-)

But there are still unapplied patches that deserve attention.
The one that I am most worried about is Grégoire Barbier's
http-push changes:

  $gmane/70406 <1200250979-19604-1-git-send-email-gb@gbarbier.org>
  $gmane/70407 <1200250979-19604-2-git-send-email-gb@gbarbier.org>
  $gmane/70405 <1200250979-19604-3-git-send-email-gb@gbarbier.org>

They look sensible on paper. I do not, however, use http-push
myself, and I'd really like an independent success (or failure)
reports on them.  I can also threaten to apply them and see if
it breaks for anybody, which I may end up doing.

Martin Koegler's parse_commit_buffer() tightening is much easier:

  $gname/70478 <12003456313661-git-send-email-mkoegler@auto.tuwien.ac.at>

It needs a proper commit message; the patch itself is good.  I
could write one myself but I'd rather want description from the
real contributor.
