Looks reasonable to me. Thanks for working on this.

I don't really know what "complete tuple descriptor" means. BlessTupleDesc()
does say "make a completed tuple descriptor useful for SRFs" - but I don't
think that means that Bless* makes them complete, but that they *have* to be
complete to be blessed.

Already was the case, so maybe not worth mucking with: Why the newline here,
but not in other cases?
