In a way, that does sound reasonable to me, however, the Allegro
documentation says about code contributions
People only need to be listed in the source file header if they've made a
significant contribution to it (one-line fixes don't count), but no matter
how small their addition, they must be added to the docs/thanks._tx file.
and in my case it doesn't really matter, since I'm mentioned in neither
AUTHORS nor THANKS. ;-)
