My bad.
The fix has been commited to stage and fast-forwarded to next.

Ok Bill,

I'll try to do that.
Two remarks on this issue:

1) Wouldn't it be possible for CDash to alert the Commiter AND the Author?
    I say that because may be the commiter is not the appropriate one
    because of the local->stage->next steps. However the Author from
    git log seems to be good.

    Shall I file a feature request on CDash?
    Did I miss something?
    I'm subscribing to the CMake Dashboard and didn't get any e-mail alert
    of my breakage.

2) The current breakage concerned the 79 columns limit,
    is this limit un-upgradable to something more reasonable now that
    80 columns VT100 are not that common anymore?
    I did a lot of fixed source fortran in the past but I'd like not be
    bothered with this anymore.

   I'm not requesting 180 columns but may be something like 100 would be
   even easier to read with current indentation scheme and method names?
