In that case, I shall forward this bug report upstream, to see
if we can get help in identifying the patch that fixed the issue (there
ight not be a simpe set of commits that I might be able to backport,
though). Even if we do find the fixes, we would still need to talk to
the SRM team to see if this can be backported into stable.
I am traveling until Friday, and so will deal with this when I
get back.
