The 2nd commented out call looks like it might have been doing something better than the default handler,
but not by so much as to matter. 
The comment seems a bit inappropriate now and I'm puzzled why we need to reinstall the default handler
(ie the call taking NULL), since we haven't installed a non-default handler anyway.
I'd be inclined to remove the comment and the call.
