Roderich Schupp updated the ticket [1] with comments about the patch
this morning.

Maybe the discussion about this patch and other fixes for this issue
could be moved to the RT ticket?  I don't want to squelch the
discussion on the list, but It sounds like most of the discussion is
taking place in the RT ticket already, it would be nice if everyone
who is interested in this issue was in one place to discuss it.
People on the list who are interested in this issue can follow along
as desired.

Thanks,

Brian
