The patch looks okay. 

But what just happened here process-wise? Please do *not* take the issue out of assignee's hands without asking first, and definitely do *NOT* push the fix until the original assignee at least performs some sort of handover. Especially don't do that in the span of less than 24 hours, where the assignee might just be asleep. I also suspect the build infra changes require more reviews, anyway. Don't rush it, folks!
