[...] Mathieu, while what you (and PH) says is correct, it does not mean that we should not put any thinking when it comes to bumping PORTEPOCH. Surely tools exist to be made use of if it helps to solve the problem; but every solution comes at a price, and careful/experienced committer would probably have selected better one. Often "better" means "less ugly", and I do not see why any mentor should not encourage their mentees to select the least ugly/intrusive choice among equally functional ones. ./danfe
