Why copy-paste? (Well, I think I know why...) Should we do the same with all messages from ML now? Just use normal ML UI, like gmane, I provided link to earlier. If you need direct one to Chris' mail, it would be:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.llvm.devel/4376...

Actually I'm not sure why this particular response was pointed out, as it is not perfect rebuttal. It's almost always better to even only skim whole thread than be picky about which mail to read carefully, as you'll always miss something then.
