I'm pretty sure this bit of code relates to producing the
comma-and-colon-separated value of the GUESTS env var which is
deprecated and quite frankly a useless nightmarish mess. GUESTS is not
really usable since version 0.10 anyway.
So the beah side will be more work than this one line. But still not too
hard :-)
Correct, I found that out when I spent more than 5 minutes looking at the code (I think
the beah side patch was 2 or 3 lines).
The patch I put up on gerrit on this change was also not this :-)
