No worries, just wanted to make sure that it wasn't a "paired" updated -
e.g. the PA commits *required* the GST ones (I figured it was very
unlikely but with the Skype issue on the third patch, I figured I'd be
safer ask!)

OK, applied to my tree now with a tiny modification due to Lennart's
rate limit patch on s-q which I've now merged to master (with updates
for additional calls).

Will push once I've done a few more bits and bobs.
