Thanks for your report. From the information you give, I think this issue is probably worth an update to stable. Steve, would you object to this? Mike, what we might need is a confirmation that the proposed patch in upstream is considered OK. I will subscribe ourselves to the upstream bug ASAP to track this down....but I might forget..:-)...so, if you have more information about the bug, feel free to forward it to the bug report.
