Hmm... too many rebases that on my head things are becoming shady ;-)

Originally, this was setting it to true, but you requested to move it
to another patch during one of the patch reorder requests.

Anyway, after all those rebases, I guess it is now safe to set it
to true here without breaking bisectability. I'll move the hunk back
to this patch.

Thanks,
Mauro
