Let's officially open a bug (this is what you'd better have done but thanks anyway for reporting). I even give this an important severity. Dalibor, I'll assign you as bug submitter, as soon as I'll receive the bug number, if you don't mind Nicolas, Tomasz? Advices? Please better wait for the official bug number and answer to it.
