Comment (by gk):

 Yes, I think we wait for a new tag. I am a bit confused about your commit
 message (just nits):

 1) "Remove workarounds for fixed upstream bug" <- it seems you are
 removing just one and not several in your patch?
 2) "I wasn't able to remove the cc-for-target workaround for GitHub been
 fixed" <- I have a hard time understanding that one.
