I think I've seen kernel-hardening complain about this; and that's not

I forgot the exact thread.

I'm basically going to never send anything to a moderated list, ever.
It's what I've been doing for a long while, but I got lazy the other day
because a patch I did was a wide spray all over the tree and I didn't
want to manually compose the Cc list.
