I went to apply this patch and then got stuck when filling out the
Author field, since the email name doesn't look like a person's name,
and I am uncomfortable committing something without a person's name and
I don't remember ever doing this. To be more concrete, without a name
there is no way to reference the original author in the future --- a
company name doesn't allow that.

I am willing to apply this patch with no author if that is what people
prefer, or we can just leave the C comment typo unfixed.
