My fault.  I didn't have a reason for putting it on master.
My reason really boiled down to "I can't decide where this goes,
oops, got distracted by something, git checkout master, git am,
move on...".

Yes, it probably should have gone to maint.  No, it didn't go there.
Temporary lapse in maintainer judgement.

Probably.  Sorry for the cherry-pick being required here.
