It's kind of hard to think of a case where one would use the name
of a company in a way that doesn't refer to the company but rather
to a trademark when even using "company product" doesn't mean to
refer to it as part of a trademark :) I.e. when would one have to
use the company trademark?
In any case, do the attached patches look correct to you?
