I beg to differ.

Partha, according to your comment #35 on this bug, the patch was
committed to HEAD only. Thus, as far as the users are concerned, this
bug is NOT fixed.

This is a crasher bug. And there is a fix. Why don't you commit this to
the stable branch as well?


*Please, remember to fix important bugs in the stable branch as well.*


Another note: Pointing users to source code fixes is pointless in almost
all cases. This is the *users* list, not the hackers list. Please, think
about the difference...
