Not intentionally, maybe as part of resolving a conflict. I haven't
decided yet what to do about the overall situation, but giving our irc
discussion I'm indeed inclined to run all patches through sed -e
's/\<rq\>/req/' before applying. Overall this really looks like a
bikeshed (with a slight bias towards req from grepping other sources),
and whomever's first wins with the color choice, just to avoid
conflicts.
