Ehh, the older versions never expected people to ask a tag to be pulled in
the first place, so there is no way they would have known to unwrap the
tag and pasted its tag message in the output ;-).

The request-pull script in 1.7.9 has finally received some belated
love. Since mid 2009, it didn't get much updates that improve the user
visible experience.
