That's fine. When Greg (or other stable maintainer) process the commit,
it will produce a "FAILED" message and Cc all those in the tags
(obviously, you'll be one of them as the author), and then you can
reply to that email with the fixed up version and Greg (or whoever)
will take that patch in.

Thanks!
