[PD-dev] [declare -stdpath]: does it work?

[Mike McGonagle]

Hi Roman,

Not sure if this is the problem, but I had similar troubles like this, and
to solve the issue, I saved the patch that contains the [declare] in it, and
then reopened it. I guess the issue here is that declare really only
operates when a patch is first opened from a file. (I could be wrong on
this...)
