That would be even more confusing since the value that is being used
is RSS_4Q so I am not sure where the 8Q comes into play.  I guess at
some point it was renamed?  Feel free to modify the code however you
want.  I was just going through and trying to figure out the issue
that had been reported and I noticed it wasn't getting enabled.  It's
fine with me if you drop me as author if you guys rewrite the patch
and add a comment.  You could probably just add a Suggested-by credit
to the patch you generate.
