Hi Ethan,

Did Jeff contact you about this failing to compile?  I'm currently
providing vacation covering for him and we found this was failing to
compile just before he left.  We captured the failure in our notes for
this but there is no comment on if you were contacted or not.

Regardless, when I apply this patch (with or without 2-2) we get the
following error on a compilation attempt: Here's the error:
--------------------------------------------------------
Here's the error:
