That's actually why I did this -- we currently have the .Fx macro defined as 
DragonFly, so all the HISTORY sections are wrong.  I've been going through 
and looking at each instance instead of just mass-replacing them.
He is fixing a problem that I caused.
I havent gotten a chance to look through the patchset, but if nobody
beats me to it I will get it taken care of this evening.
