[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I was working on another patch on the master branch of emacs, and while testing i encountered this, but after digging and a quick magit blame I realised this is one of the changes of emacs master branch, I should have tested my changes after building emacs instead of relying on my unstable emacs, my bad!
