Sorry, can't parse this; git newbie here.  Did you mean the 'git commit' 
I'm doing to my private repository and the message associated with the 
commit?  And by "original comment" do you mean what I called the change 
log in the text of my v2 email we're discussing (i.e., not the patch 
attachment but the email body)?

Yikes.  I'd seen large 5-digit pids but could not find a definitive symbol 
defining Windows' maximum pid value.  So I will change divisor's init 
value to 1000*1000*1000 which will allow the conversion loop to support 
10-digit pids.

Great!  I'll follow up with Jon separately (to the list) on his comments.
