This is installed now.

Another problem I found with the line numbers in `occur' is that
the number of matches it reports in the header line is wrong.
If there are more than one match on a line, the total number
of matches is more than the total number of matching lines
currently displayed in the header line.  So I propose
to change the format of the occur header line from:

  2 matches for "is" in buffer: *scratch*

to:

  4 matches in 2 lines for "is" in buffer: *scratch*

I found that the exact number of matches (as opposed to
the number of matching lines) often is necessary to know beforehand
how many times it requires to type C-s to visit all matches
or how many times to type y/n to replace all matches in the buffer.
