I've attached what I just committed.  The previous 'show ancestor' patch 
needs to be reversed and this applied.  It works for me on a half-dozen

You no longer should need to work around multiple reporting of the

I'm going to finish getting some of Thomas's patches in and make an 
actual release so people won't have to scour the lists.
