I know and agree, but

asked for the non-working code to be kept to work with older kernels.
I do not have any strong feelings, so I left it as it was.

Actually, as long as there are several blocks doing similar things, I
believe an explanation should be close to the code to explain why.  I
will wonder when I return in a few years time. :)

Yeah, but did not find a simple way to do it, and it is not affecting
the functionallity, only the user messages.  Should probably be fixed
in the final version.

Yeah.

It will happen before any commit is done.
