Thanks for your bug report.  This bug was reported a while ago by
Marcus Brinkmann, but not this detailed.  You can find the report
here:

http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=1741&group_id=30

No one is working on fixing this bug at the moment and AFAIK no one
planned to do so soon.  You are more than welcome to fix this bug.

Thanks,
Marco
