Thanks for the review!

Agreed. I've updated the patches as suggested.

Hi Fujii-san,

I've noticed an inconsistent naming convention in the patch:
we use a capitalized Boolean for the boolean type, but a lowercase integer when referring to the value type.

+ errmsg("%s requires a Boolean value, an integer "
+        "value greater than or equal to zero

Is there any reason why we follow this mixed style?


Another nitpick in v6-0001 patch:
tow whitespaces are between "special" and "value"
+         second %s is the special  value "match" for that option */

Thanks,
Steven
