Axel,

Thanks for looking at these. I have a more comprehensive fix for both of these 
bugs nearly ready. This involves backporting several fixes from upstream and 
also (more intrusively) updating the packages to use gdc-v2. This is nearly 
ready. I'll try and let you have a version to test asap and get it uploaded.

Many thanks

Andrew
