As noted previously, I have been moving house and generally offline since
mid-June (and I'm not really fully online yet).  My last request was if
Kevin (or someone else with an affected laptop) could test HEAD to see if
there is a missing bugfix on HEAD that needs to be merged.  This specific
change was tested on HEAD on both a T440 and X220 and on 10 to test the
MFC on the T440.

John,

I am back from my vacation and hope to try HEAD soon, hopefully this
weekend. Since HEAD has been a bit fragile of late, I do plan on testing
and switching back to STABLE. I will probably install HEAD on a spare
drive. With luck (meaning nothing crops up that fills the available time),
I should have an answer on Monday.

Hope the move was not too chaotic and life gets back to normal quickly. (I
hate moving, but I do so twice a year. Practice makes something approaching
perfect.)
