[Matrix-SIG] Unapplied patches

[Paul F. Dubois]

I apologize, I missed it. I have the second message sitting in my NumPyToDo
folder but I didn't do it.

So, the patch isn't in release 8 either.

You can hope for release 9, but then again, the same idiot is in charge.

The first one I just plain lost. I don't even remember it.
