I just repeated what Uwe gave me. Maybe he didn't notice he was already
there as SoB.

This situation is anyway a bit more complex than usual. The line I took
was part of Uwe's much larger patch initially (which was fully reverted)
so his SoB was carried over to preserve the authorship. As I made a
non-trivial modification to his original patch by removing almost all of
it, I added my SoB too. Given this situation, I kind of thought he Acked
(approved) the post-modification version of it.
