Does this really qualify as a necessary bug fix?

Sorry for log silence, I was on a business trip in last week.

I recreate a patch (of course, which have been tested) ASAP.

Heh, I think you've got a good point. This one doesn't have any real
nasty side-effects that I can see. David do you have objections to
dropping this one from -stable?

thanks,
