For some reason, the feedback on GitLab was not sent back to the mailing list
in my case.  A patch I sent to the mailing list [0] received two comments
on GitLab [1], but no replies are found on the mailing list.

This is a bit of a tricky case, but I've deployed a patch which should
fix it, perhaps imperfectly. We'll work on a more involved solution and
may update it with a better approach later on.
