Correct

Whatever you do, I don't think its useful to preserve the history of
my branch. I would suggest maybe splitting commits for the most
invasive changes (throw/signal, Fload/load-suffixes, new user_ptr
type) and import the completely new stuff in a single commit (all the
content of modules/ basically). I know Philip tried to write Changelog
entries for some commits in the commit message that can be re-used. If
can try to make a new branch that can be re-based on master with the
commits I had in mind if you want.

I thought he did, but I cannot find any commits on master from him so
I guess he didn't.
