But you do know that you don't need to apply the change *now*; you can
apply it at bisect-time? Unless you expect you or your mere mortal
coworkers are going to do dozens of bisects into that part of the history,
I wouldn't change history *like*this*. But of course, I don't understand
the circumstances enough, so... just my 2 cents.
