I am ok with the patch, and also your 4/8, but I really believe you
should be more verbose in the commit log. Here the only information is
"update/fix HOST_PATH variable". But why? What is the reason? What are
the impacts? It is especially true when we look at those patches with a
little bit of delay as is the case now.

Thanks!

Thomas
